For 1980...

In 1981 there were three different wheels available on the "S" model.
The one that you have a picture of, is either a 321 601 025, 321 601 025
B, or 321 601 025 C, the difference on the "C" wheel is that it has,
ET45, 5Jx13 H2, and VW Audi, stamped on the face of the wheel. Otherwise
all three look pretty much the same.

The 13x5.5" Scirocco S wheel, the one with 24 spokes, the part no. is 
321 601 025 G, 
a totally different wheel and the letter is the only differentiation.
I've seen a lot of Jetta I with these wheels, and a couple of Jetta II's.

My other S wheels are buried in my garage, so I can't check the part
numbers right now, but I think they were 321 601 025's also, with a
another different series letter.

Available in singles with a tire mounted for $30, Philadelphia area.
