i was gonna go for those wheels... but they're too far away from me.. and he wasnt very helpful when i asked about having courier pick em up n stuff..
-
They are quite a long way from me, but i don't mind a bit of a road trip after christmas, i'll just have to take some turkey sandwiches for the journey :grin:
Yeah, everything he mentioned in the description sounded like he wasn't interested in posting them at all!
I've been on the look out for a set of these wheels for ages.? I did find out that you can use BBS RX2s from a MK4 GTI, but they came with 205/55/16 tyres rather than the 215/40/16s from the mk3 anniversary wheels, so to keep the speedo reading correctly you would have to replace all four tyres before fitting the wheels to a mk3.
The good news is that the mk4 ones are much more common and a bit cheaper.
I don't know if there were any other differences.
-
bad news is the mk4 ones are .5 inch narrower ;)
if u look down you;ll see a post of me where i missed the anniv gear knob the guy you got the wheels from..
and a set of mk3 anniv wheels within 80 miles of here.. owww
-

I didn't realise that. Hence the different tyre spec i suppose.

Owww indeed, i have tracked a couple of auctions on these wheels where it's just gone mad in the last minutes. I think i got lucky with these ones.
Good luck with getting a set mate. I think they would look especially great on a black car!
