Hey Bruce -- it's a VW rim, called the "Baja Champion".. made of steel, they are very heavy but very durable. Made for VW by the German wheel company Lemmerz (sp?) in 1972-73. Worth up to $50 each for a nice wheel without center cap, and up to $100 each for a nice wheel with center cap (the center caps are made of aluminum, and are hard to find). I'm pretty sure they use regular VW lug-bolts. Though quite narrow (15 x 4.5"), these wheels are desired by collectors and people in the air-cooled VW show crowd.

if he wanted them to be all shining he should have asked the judge to give him an afternoon out so the cars would be pretty

Yep, an afternoon is all it needs to make it pretty

Hmmm, the place where I store my parts cars has a couple of sets of these if anybody is looking for them. I saw some today while working on the black 914. I personally think they look a lot like 924 rims. Which, IMHO, look ugly.
