I was looking at a Harley 16 inch wheel at a community yard sale last weekend. Guy had front and rear take offs from a 2011. Dunlop tires never touched the road. He was asking $100 for the wheel and tire, then another gent kind of butted in and bought both of them for $160.
The 17 inch tire I was looking at was 28.5 inches OD and would probably hit the trailing arm, requiring modification for it to work. I'll keep an eye out for the 16 inch wheel or use the hub and another VW wheel with the same tire as the front, which I already have new, but it's a 15 inch tire.

regards
Mech
