    What OEM VW wheels are these?"



    So,
    Earlier this year I got these rims and I thought they were Bora sport rims
    I know that they arn't Bora Sports now, but I am intrigued to what they are
    I know that they are 17 in, PCD of 5 x 100 and I have seen them on a New Beetle.

    Does anyone know the name of these Rims and what the original car these came off was?

    OEM Toccata or Tocatta, cant remember how you spell it.

    I had them on my Bora.

    They were an optional extra wheel available for the Bora. They were never released on a particular model as standard.

    I really love the look of these rims especially on the polo.

    Great thing about them is that they are not common like the Bora sports!

    Wasn't sure what they were or what they came off.

    Sorry smead didn't mean to be a prick about it but can see I did.

    They aren't 'fugly' just not my thing.

    Still reckon they are similar to those vy ones though.

    Its all good Pat25d
    The great thing about it is they may not be your thing, but to others they look cool
    It would be boring if we all had the same tastes
    And I'll even admit there is a hint of those VY wheels there

    I think they were common New Beetles? May also have been option on Polo.

    This pic is from a Polo brochure, and looks like your wheels.
