> At least in the US, the wheels were all black in '68-9, and probably also earlier, at least back to '66. As of '70 they were painted black all over, and then oversprayed with silver on the outside face, outside of the hubcap area only. > 64-65 were black "smoothie" rims (no slots) for the S models that came with trim rings. 66-67 are the typical 4-lug black slotted wheels, again with trim rings. Replacement rims for the 61-early 64 cars (5-lug slotted) are also commonly painted black. - Everett Barnes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
