Keep an eye on ebay, they do come up occasionally but may need refurbing. Watch out for dodgy copies!

i got a set off ebay for £450, granted they are copies but the quality is good. just had mine remapped by R-tech and the differnce is amazing, for £285 its well worth it!

Nice car.

Keep an eye on Ebay though, I scuffed my nearside alloy and picked up a genuine brand new one for £203 (granted, no tyre on that!) but you could be looking at around 1k to 1.2k all in all. Beats VW's £1600 (without tyre!). Could save you around £900!

Admittedly though, you need to trawl through every day, they go quick unfortunately.

Best of luck, and nice car!

How much are they going for? If it doesn't state they are genuine BBS ask for the BBS part number for your reference.

And cheers! I'll have to sell the car with the wheels lol
