i had a '90 tornado red carat wolfsburg that had steelies and wheelcovers. the original owner was approached by someone with a '84 westy several years after he bought the van in the early '90's and the guy with the 84 westy offered him cash plus his steelies with brand new tires for his alloys with worn out tires.. the owner of the carat didn't care if he had alloys or not so he swapped them and was happy to not have to buy new tires!! that was back when the 14" carat alloys were a big deal.. now nobody wants them .. everyone is running 15" or 16" alloys. |
