Rondell 0058 7J x 15 ET35 alloy wheels.
Image
I fitted these as the OE 2 piece BBS alloys suffer from laquer corrosion. OE wheels are in good condition, but I did not wish for them to deteriorate. The Rondell alloys are the closest looking one piece wheels to the OE BBS that I could find. The benefits are they are wider (7J as opposed to 6J) and lighter than the OE BBS.


Car has been well cared for, garaged every night in my ownership and washed/waxed regularly using quality products. Driven respectfully, used as a second car solely for school run and commute.

Bad Points:
Small dent in front wing from supermarket car park.
Dent in sill from a previous owner jacking the car up.
Some small marks which have been touched up on the rear bumper.

Priced at £4,850
