Haven't read the whole thread, but my 2pence!

They are 15"x6J ET37. The wheels known as G60 Steels aren't actually the original G60 steels but Passat winter wheels, just that they are similar and the part number for G60 steels was changed to the same as the Passat winters.

Proper G60 Steels are rare and not many people have them, I bet they go for £300+, Passat wheels can still be bought new from VW which is about £150 for the set of 4 (no tyres though). I paid £200 for mine with 2 good tyres, not the best deal but the guy was close.

Would have thought so.

The renauly 16's are 6.5x16 ET49. Steel Speedlines haha. Would look cool with some 16" Late Vauxhall wheel trims or Merc wheel trims.

Don't sell the Speedlines Just keep both sets and chop and change!

Cheapest place these days to get the steelies is direct from stealers as they reach silly money on eBay and E38 etc!

And roofbars on my van?!

The gf just went mental

I only paid £150 for my alessios, they need a refurb though. If i do send them off for refurb the old sport wheels will go back on

Might sit a bit low though

Saying they are passat wheels isn't as cool as saying they are G60 reps.
