Looking for some older style rims !

My wife wants the OLD style wire rims for her HHR like she use to have on her VW bug back in the late 60's early 70's and damned if I can find them !

Anyone got any ideas were I might find them or is she just SOL and there not made now days ?

I just used the following words in different orders, but always had HHR in the search.
(vintage wheels, classic wheels, or wire wheels)
You still may have a time finding some with the proper bolt pattern.
The HHR takes a 5 x 110 bolt pattern with a +40 mm offset (due to it being front wheel drive).
Good luck on your hunt!

Dayton Wheels

I had a friend who used to have Daytons with the knock off hubs on his custom S10. They certainly made the car stand out!
