For my off road buggy, vw based, which would be more durable the wide five or spindle mount? I know with spindle I'd be losing my from brakes, but do I really need them? |

It would be easier to find a spare five bolt rim and tire in the woods than find a spindle mount. |

I am with the other guys on this one, a wheel with lugs is superior. I have spindle mounts on my buggy, and wish I had lugged wheels. My spindle mounts do not seem as if they would be very strong, and they also keep one from running brakes. Best wishes |

It would be hard to find , but a '65 or older type 3 had a five lug with the factory star in the hub, but it is different than the beetle star type hub. It has a small wheel bearing cap and takes the same wheel bearings as a ball joint front end. they are very sharp looking if you paint them the same color as yer frame. |
