although some of the other rims were probably made by BBS anyway!!!
I'm sure when the Tarantula's were introduced in 1992 they were manufactured by BBS?

I think 14" BBS RA's were an option on the mk1, as you could have the BBS bodykit fitted from new and most cars that have this kit have 14" RA's
Actually i think you might be quite right there dude, they might have been an option in 14s on the cabriolet around 1990, they were simmilar/same as G40 polo ones as i had some i bought 2nd hand on my lhasa gti when i first got it, dunno if they actually were offered by vw dealers though?

That's more what I was thinking of, wondered if anyone has any old sales material that would confirm?
The Polo G40 are 5 1/2 13" (same as 9 spokes)

Link works for me. Anyway copied some content below
BBS wheels were not a factory option for the MK1 according to the sales brochure and price list.
They may have been ordered from the dealer as an aftermarket accessory.
I am pretty sure 13" BBS cross spokes were fitted to the Mk3 Polo G40 as standard, so you could try to get hold of a set from your VW dealer.

scanner is not working so hope you can make this out :? this is the

That looks like the BBS brochure to me, not a VW Accessory one. None of the VW Accessory brochures I have even list BBS wheels for the Mk1 hatch, they are mostly ATS.

from vw and had the kit fitted 6 months later by the same dealer.
