Subject:14" factory wheel conundrum
From:Jason Gorfine
Date:Fri, 17 Mar 2000 22:44:49 -0500

about three days ago i finally accepted the fact that there's no way i'm
going to get my hands on Synchro 16" factory wheels.  that's fine.  i'm ok
with that now.
so i go to the local VW dealership to inquire as to the range of wheels
available.  the man says to me, "you got three choices.  wait a minute,
three?  i thought there were only two."
so it turns out (as you may or may not already know), that aside from the
standard 14 x 5.5" and alloy 15 x 7", there's a 14 x 6".  that was the one
that threw the parts guy.  apparently it looks just like the 14 v 5.5".  the
only problem is, it's double the price ($139 versus $69).
i would really love to get those 14 x 6" wheels.

does any one know where i could get my hands one some used ones (4) in
really, really good condition (silver, not black)?

thanks,
jason
