That's the only thing I found. Never heard of them, let alone seen them before.

Yup. The Dakars. Lovely wheel

Not found any info of the wheels on my Kombi ...... 8.5 x 20''. Any ideas what they may be would be appreciated. They were originally silver and powder coated grey by PO.

Are they these? Looks similar so it might be a variant of them if not

These are 9x20s, but they look very similar.

Thank you for that link. Look very similar. I’ll check again on the 8.5 v 9.0” sizing.

Look more like these Altus 20" Alloy Wheels (Set of 4)

I did think it might be those but the VW badge in the original image made me think they were VW brand wheels unless they've been rebadged....

I'd be going with them being these.

Appear to have been rebadged I guess.

Aye, will just be an eBay badge. I’d imagine..

We have calibre fives, and I’ve fit vw badges as the calibre ones look a bit tacky imo.

Hi all, can anyone put a make and model to this rim please? Looks like a Calibre Exile-R but I didn’t think they were available in plain silver.
Cheers, Rick.

Definitely looks like the same shape. We stock them, but like you said they don't come in silver. Closest they do is a polished face finish:

Exile-R 18" Alloy Wheels (Set of 4)

The Calibre Exile-R alloy wheel comes with a Y spoke design, providing a distinctive and great value upgrade to standard T5 & T6 wheels. Supplied in a choice of Matt Black or Gloss Black finish, these wheels will really lift the overall look of your VW camper. The 14 Y spoke concave design is...

Hi, yes that’s what I was thinking. I think they’re a great looking rim but the dreaded “wheel worm” puts me off getting the polished version.

Hi!

Most certainly Springfields, seller says Original Gunmetal Grey, are these originally sold?
Any idea how I could find these?

VW T6 T6.1 Springfield 8jx18h2 ET 50, 5 x 120

 

[peter1987t]

Still curious if these rims are original and not custom painted
