Method MR103 Buggy Beadlock 15x4.5 -25mm Offset 5x205 160mm CB Raw Machined w/BH-H24100 Wheel for VW Dune Buggies 1950-1979
The Method MR103 Buggy Beadlock wheel sets the standard for off-road durability in 15x4.5 size. It fits VW dune buggies sand rails and custom rails with 5x205 bolt pattern and 160mm center bore. The -25mm offset delivers a planted stance for control on rough trails while the true beadlock design secures tires at low pressures.

- Raw Machined Finish: Exposed aluminum with protective clear coat resists corrosion and chips from impacts while showing authentic race look
