SNAP! :lol: After much deliberation between me and Petrified, we have come to the decision that mine and these (posted above) are actually RXII's-they RSII's have a diamond carved effect near the center-These are the best ones!

Congratulations you have purchased some EXCELLENT wheels!! Although i may be biased for certain reasons! 8)

Cool!! Sorry for getting the same wheels as you by the way.

I have spoken to Micheldever Station who has given me a price of £60 each for Falkens fitted and 91 each for F1 GSD 3. I hope they are a good price?

By the way they also deliver for free.

Things always come in three's ??

I just picked up a set from Inters today!!

Well, they look the same as them. Mine are Golf 25th Anniversay BBS RS771's (It says on the back)

Just need to get some tyres now!!
16 205 40's I think.

Good job I didn't get tyres as well then, might have got the wrong ones!

Come to think of it, no one had them anyway... I'm not supprised!

I went for 4 Falkens in the end at a cost of 235 including fitting...Not worth getting F1 GSD3 at 90 pounds per tyre!

Yeah mine are the same 771's!! Soooooo coool! Cheers for finding out the tyres size mate, thats what I was going to go for and falkens are good!

Nice one petrified! Top alloys aren't they! Send us some pics of your cars when they are on and let me know if you beat £235 as that is a good quote! 8)

Michledever was packed with customers but they were well organised and did a great job.

By the way, the Falken model is ZE-512 - 205 45 16
