how many types of p-slot ?

hope somebody can clear this up, mk1 pslots– smaller gap between p's single A on part number yes ?  now i have another p-slot with all of the above only this one has perelli stamped on the centre of the wheel near part number ?  are they both mk1 p-slots and how many variations of p-slots are there ?

Yes - some of the Mk1 P slots have Pirelli logo cast into them and others don't. Not 100% sure why. Maybe the first run was made and supplied by Pirelli (or made by Ronal and supplied via Pirelli ?), whereas the subsequent wheels were made by VW themselves under license (???)  I've got both types myself. None of the Mk2 versions have the logo. (I'm talking the wheel itself here by the way, not centre caps). As far as I know they're the only 'factory' P slots supplied on cars. There are of course the 15" Ronal made versions available in a couple of different offsets, and some Italian made 15" P's too

cheers for the reply,  nice to know it's not my wheels that are copies anyway.

there is also two versions of fifteens available and an extremely rare version in 16s but theyre of a bmw,there is also a couple of 'fake' 16"p's doing the rounds which are porsche 928s which have been machined

Are you sure 16" P slots exist?

I've only ever been aware of 14" and 15" wheels - never 16" ones, I'd love to see some…perhaps a bit big for a mk1 though :?

yup seen pics off them as a display model with close ups and also on car. Centres looked very different from the usual 14s/15s and seemed to disapear under the centre cap when removed(down to the et)it was a very old post on E38 but ill try find it
