Verry nice car

But you definitaly need wider wheels on the back....

That's my only recomendation (do you write that so??)

Looks good so far. You chopped it yourself?

Don't know if you've checked out www.volksrods.com/forums yet, but lots of chops and customs over tehre.

I have been thinking of getting new wheels but I don't know if I really want to. I am tired of the Empi 5 spokes that EVERYONE has and there aren't many other options for 5 lug. Maybe BRM but not sure if they would look right. What did you mean by wider?

wide = flared fenders

NOW NOW.. please dont put flared fenders on this beetle.. that sucks!!!

I don't mean flared fensders.. i mean wider wheels.. (uuh how do I explain it in engilsh) ... the rear fenders are not fulled out ... the tire is a lot smaller then the fender..

I hope you know what i mean..

In dutch: Je velgen laten verbrede aan de achterzijde... Ze vallen ruim binnen de spatborden, bredere velgen zou iets mooier staan onder je kever.. Maybe another dutch guy can translate it better then me

That is one problem I have with this forum. I post often without realizing that I am not signed in. Anyway. I have no intention of flaring the fenders or anything. Its not like I need that wide of wheel or tire, I cant even do a burn out hardly right now. I might see how wider tires look in a few years when I need new ones.
