chime!!!
I think the splines on the Porsche 924/944 wheel is the same as a post '73 beetle, super or otherwise. My car is a June '73 model, so has the same spline as the earlier beetles.
Since the 924 wheel I used and the 4 spoked wolfsburg crested VW wheel I had originally in my bug were both of similar construction, I was able to grind off the brass rivets that hold the collapsible portion of my the wheels from the actual "spoked" bit of the wheel and swap them for each other. Then I just used 10mm head M6 bolts and nuts to secure the collabsible VW section to the spokes of the Porsche wheel. They were the exact same pattern. I then welded the bolts and nuts on, just to be sure, by nylock nuts would do the job too. Replace all the plastic coverings and horn push and it looks factory!!
BTW, the Porsche wheel had VW/Audi logos moulded into the back of it, so was obviously manufactured by them...
