I knw they were prone to peeling, but as far as know, once these have been refurb they should be fine well I hope so.

I got alloys wheels refurb by VW (Part of used deal) when I got my car, at the moment the wheels look mint, and I was hoping it will remain this way.

Please tell me they will................

have you got a et on your car at the mo??if so just get them refurbed!! or get different wheels! if you do manage to find some new wheels they will cost you over 200 quid each!

george

p.s. i may have some forsale if u havnt got any

will these fit, not exactly the same but a very nice wheel.

Have you thought of buying some g60 steels for winter use? Less than £200 brand new from VW with centre caps, they are the same dimensions as the BBS RX2 (6" x 15") and use the same wheel bolts and tyre sizes. The BBS alloys really aren't suited to our winters, as the rim is diamond-cut and not lacquered, therefore prone to corrosion/damage. Nightmare!

But if you have a summer set, get them blinged up with some chrome detailing (ie. the wheel bolts and rims)

There are a good number of places that can refurbish split-rims, my best quote so far (at a place local to me) has been ~£300 to refurbish all four with the finish of my choice.

I would like a set that have black powder coated centre & polished lip, but my car is black. Don't know if it would look right.
