Got a set of 14 inch steel wheels that will fit my MK2 Jetta? Tired of tripping over them in your garage? Sell them to me. Im looking for a cheap set of steelies. I would prefer without any tires but that isnt a deal breaker. The most important thing is that they are cheap. I am kicking myself for all the steel wheels I junked over the years.

Prefer something in Southeast or Mid-Michigan (who want to drive 8 hours for steelies?) but I will be in St Louis all next week so thats an option too.

Any 4 bolt Chrysler K-car wheels will fit,too. Same hub diameter and everything.

If I took two sets of 13s could I make a set of 14s with enough left over for a set of 12s?

I have a set of VW 14" alloys that I was going to take to the scrapyard, but they won't do you much good in Michigan.

I have some from a Miata but the hub bore would be a few mm too small.

I buy rabbits by the dozen, they all come with 13" steelies; few leave with them.

Funny how that works, with the first K-cars having VW engines and all....

I never thought I would see the day 14 inch steelies would be so hard to find. I really am regreting scrapping so many through the years. I have three beat up snowflakes. Anybody got a fourth to round out the set?

Alloys would work too. But alas I think shipping would make it more cost effective to just hit up a local junk yard.

I picked up a set from a local guy today. Still wouldnt mind having another set or a fourth snowflake. Everybody look under your workbench and see if you have one.

You'll need to log in to post.
