I got well excited when mine hit 100k then the drive shaft broke


get those wheels and some coilies, looks epic

What about refurbing them in that bronze anodised kind of colour that would look good and different imo

DO NOT JYNX ME

Trying to get a set of them already refurbed as I have heard they can be a right pig! The guy declined my offer for his ones so going to see what happens with the auction.

What sort of colour you mean? Was going to try and keep it OEM like above with silver centre and polished looking rim but open to other suggestions

They look smart Gav you will have more dish than me

yeah they are bbs rxii's. 16" ones come on the mk3 anni in 7" wide and some gti mk4's in 6.5 inch.

Mark I've seen some pics of ch's on a mk3 and I wasn't won over by them. Especially not enough to warrant the price tag

Not bad for the year

Can't remember who i ordered it off tbh, saw some other ones that would go nice with my seats last night too

cheers Davie, you reckon you can try and get a price off him?

Heard bad stories about people trying to split them and bolts snapping, so not sure whether to just get a set already done?

those 2 piece bbs's are easy to split, just make sure the bolts don't look too corroded before you buy and you'll be fine.

the set i had came apart very easy

Won these last night on egay for £92 Set i was bidding on the other day went for £162 so glad i didnt win them

Will be able to sell the Monty's for more than these, and will probably have a bash/get them refurbed after winter as they'll only get ruined again anyway if i do them now.
