 Posted: Mon Dec 05, 2005 6:06 pm Post subject: How many wheels do you own? |
 |
|
Inspired by the cylinders thread. I'll start:
4 stock wheels on Thing.
2 Bus spares that came with it.
4 15" Beetle wheels that will eventually go on the Thing.
4 stock aluminum wheels on the Beretta.
2 more aluminum wheels to replace the ones that became bent at some point.
4 narrower steel wheels I'm buying tomorrow for winter use.
= 20 wheels.  |

I thought you meant wheels as in rolling... 
That would be: 5
Chevy Van
Jeep Rubicon
'65 Bug
'66 Bug
'58 DD Bus
if you're talking individual wheels, you add them, and don't forget the spares.  |

6-Truck (4+2 spares)
5-Baja
4-spare truck
5-Bronco
4-Truck summer wheels
4-Baja rollers
2-Enduro

lol. There's over 150 custom 4 and 5 lug wheels in the garage, not counting stock wheels, wheels on the driving vehicles, etc... And I own NO porsche pattern 5x130 wheels.
Anyone need some 14" bus rims? $10 each plus shipping. I think I have 10 or so I just don't know what to do with.
