Scirocco Register

I have been trying to gather a set of mk1 campaign P slots and got offered 1 with 3 centres over the phone, guy said it had Pirrelli written on it and centres were stamped Pirrelli so i did deal over phone, they were dropped off at ma house and ma wife paid him, I get home and find this strange P slot and 3 caps, i have never seen these before, they are dated 1985??? 14" aluminium centres and large Ps, here is some pics, anyone know what they are off??cheers

Width? 5 1/2 x 14??
Looking at the shape of the wheel - they bow outwards yes?? - it could be a very unusual wheel that Pirelli made as an aftermarket wheel in addition to the VARIOUS 'flatter' faced 6 x 14 and versions VW fitted to some mk1 and mk2 Golf GTI's plus the 86-87 Scirocco GTX.
I have seen photos of these on a Lancia show car back in 1986 for example.
There was also a 6 x 15 P wheel issued back in the day too that the wheel-whores crowd go wild for, only set on here i think is owned by Lenny125/Glen.

As I understand it the Mk1 Golf Campaigns have less 'P's' than the wheels fitted to later cars as standard too.

Hope that helps?

I believe these are the earlier style Pirellis as they have 8 p's instead of the more common 9. Are they 14's or 15's as the 15's came with those centre caps and 8 p's.

Pretty sure these are the aftermarket ones as GTXTRA says which were made by Pirelli.

I believe the MK1 Campaign ones have 9 p's but there should be only a 7mm gap between the P's rather than the more usual 10mm of the later more common vw fitment.

could have swarn this very topic is on Mk1 golf forum too! ...are thee the wheels everyone goes on about wanting, the rare ones?!?
