Just wondering if anyone has a clue if these look like stock vw rims or aftermarket? Looking for a 03 wagon.

Cheers!

Seeing as we cant see the images... no idea other than these cars do not have rim's. They have wheels with no rims.
Rims are a ghetto slang for over the top wheels. Some oem wheels have rims you can replace or a 3 or 2 pice wheel can have a rim part.

I grew up calling them "rims" Nothing to do with "ghetto slang", just what we called them. I guess that was technically incorrect in that only the outer portion that the tire is mounted on is called the rim, but it's a hard habit to break.
