That's my new winter wheels sorted out then! :grin:

Now, how about selling me a spare mint Monza Shadow at a give away price, PLEASE?

Umm...no! :kiss:
I may be tempted to get rid of the Monzas next Spring, when I might have plans for the tyres...but 3 of them is as much use to me as a porous condom, so I'd want to sell the set of 4.

Ok Sir. Don't want any unwanted pregnancies. I will, just have to buy all 4 and sell mine. First refusal to me PLEASE. :smiley:

Are these the VWR 18" TD wheels? Didn't know they had te writing around the rim, I like these a lot!!

Yup, they sure are.
The VWR versions don't have the cast in 'Team Dynamics' lettering, come in the satin grey colour with the lettering optional.
They also use the standard radius seat bolts by all accounts, which is less messing about.

You have such awesome taste in wheels, I love those very much :drool: how much would a set of those put me back?
-
You collect wheels like i collect cars. We are both mad. :laugh:
-
Glen:
You have good taste, full stop.
Now please answer my request about first refusal. :kiss:
Geoff:
You must get help soon. You'll do your back washing all those cars. May I recommend my ex-wife for psychiatric help? :wink:
Amanda:
I think we are the most sensible. :kiss:
Are your shadows buggered? :shocked:

Asker I have some kerbing on 2 of the 4 nothing too bad but 1 is quite noticeable. As I have winter rubber and summer rubber feel that another set of alloys would not go amiss but I've not decided on what to get yet.

Amanda:
I kerbed one. Had it repaired, discovered tonight that they have introduced 3 additional scratches on the metal which is under the lacquer and very visible under street light.
Good idea to get an extra set of alloys for your 2nd set of tyres. Make sure they are not a machined finish like the Shadows. Nightmare to fix.

Did you have it repaired locally to you? there are not many places around here that do repairs to wheels that I know of. It's bloody annoying kerbing these Monzas, they look awesome when they are in good nick but with kerbing and scratches etc don't look so great.
Will have to properly look for a decent set for carrying my winters and keep the Monzas for the better days of summer :grin:

I assume they don't come in 19" anymore?

A fine set of wheels Glen (again).
Mine recently went to a new owner and looked a bit like this :sad:

Thanks p3.
I wonder if it is anyone from here?
He says it's mint but the pictures don't match up to this claim.
-
Oooops should have checked the link worked before i posted it! :embarassed:
Works now! :smiley:
The tyre doesn't look brand new to me as stated in the ad, looks well worn on the inner edge.
I think if anyone is interested they best take a look first in person as the ad doesn't look 100%.

Yes, I've e-mailed the seller and told him that neither the tyre nor the wheel look mint.
Oh, how I wish I had bought your mint Shadows. :cry:
-
Have I missed something but why is he selling just one? Why would you have a supposedly mint spare one?
I suppose the only explanation is that he had it as a spare for his Mk6 and has sod the car. Still, it doesn't look mint to me. All 4 of mine look better than that after 22000 miles!!!!

Both the wheel and the tyre look tired. If that is what he calls mint then I don't know what mint is!

No problem Asker...if, come spring, I'm getting rid of the Monzas, you can have first refusal.

Umm...I don't know how much a new set is.
The sharp eyed will have noticed that mine have been used (valves and weights still fitted)...I am on good terms with the chap that runs VW Racing, so since this is the 5th & 6th set of wheels I've bought from them, I got a deal on the used wheels.

Love em... Really nice alloys and the 'Volkswagen Racing' lettering is a nice touch.
p.s. with a garage as clean and as organised as that you've to much time on your hands! :grin:
