Title: anyone selling monza
Post by: S4twiggy on 26 May 2011, 17:11
as per my previous posts about the bad golf im doing for a mate, we have taken the wheels off to do the brakes and found multiple buckles and cracks in the rims. these wheels are now knackered and was wondering if anyone knew of anyone selling monzas(18) in a very good condition??

i tried ebay but as im not that good on the tinternet im not sure what is genuine and what is not

BBS and Ronal both made the Monza wheels for VW. Different model years had different manufactures.

They look genuine. You can usually spot the reps as they have a bit of a raised lip on them which the ones in your photo dont have.
