detail of A&A Specialties Retro VW Wing The Cragar Series 980 S/S wheels come in 16" and 17" inch sizes for both front and rear wheel drive vehicles. A&A Specialties' Retro Volkswagen Wing may hark back to the Porsche Carrera, but it won't cost you an arm and a leg. It's made completely of urethane foam and mounts easily with 3M Automotive tape.
