I WANT JUST ONE as I am not greedy.
Yes, I know about hen's teeth. I wish they would grow just one for me, PLEASE.

I need two, one due to a careless past owner and one due to a very gutted wife.
Not prepare to take out a mortgage to buy them though!  :shocked:

I had mine repaired twice. The first time they were finished fine and then, for a pukka job as I am a fussy fart, I repaired it a second time. Not a good result. Basically, buggered.

Ess_Three has a brand new set which he is selling in the Spring. Is it not Spring already?  I don't know if I can wait so long. Probably buy a new one and sell my repaired one for £100-£120 on eBay.

Damn machined alloys.

I am getting itchy feet for a set of BBSs, preferably on 19s so I might sell my Monzas if the offer for all four of them was good enough. They are mint too - never been within a foot of a kerb!!!!!!

I am itching to buy them. I need one, but will take 2 and GerryD  needs 2. Therefore, all 4 sold for you already. Buy the BBS wheels NOW, PLEASE.

PM me your price, please. If needs be I'll buy all 4 and sell the others on.

Oh, I'll beat any price the OP sets!

You've nearly made my night.

If i am honest I dont know. Have heard a few people refer to them as bbs split rim speelines previously.  :cool:

More for show than go.. but a remap takes care of the go bit  :evil:

BBS CH R in either brilliant silver of satin black, probably the latter. They certainly look similar to yours

Thats a very nice wheel!! not a bad price for bbs either. Mine are split rims so a little more expensive to purchase originally. I spoke to audi to enquire how much it was for a new set.. without tyres they wanted Just under £2.5k  :shocked:

Mine...

Not so similar after all, now you've posted a picture. Still, yours are sooooo smart. The BBS page on that link I posted is just like a porn site!!!!

Anyway, with those CH Rs I can get a set of 4 19 inchers with tyres for under £2k which I don't think is bad. Obviously plus extra for better tyres but still not bad.

There are many non 0EM Monza Shadows knocking around. These are not in the equation and totally irrelevant to this thread.

Christmas has come early. That's a total of 12 OEM Monza Shadows on the market out of which 9 are perfect originals. I've got the vapours.

Spin: Are these wheels with the black inserts?

Sorry probably mislead you there replying on this thread.  They are the original Monza with Grey inserts bought as a winter wheel set individually with a view to having them painted, they then arrived in very good condition and couldn't bear the though of spoiling them by painting over the polished faces,  make a great second set for someone.

You naughty boy. I had to revive myself with salts.

The ledger now is:
8 Monza Shadows of which 7 are mint.
Not a bad tally for such rare objects of art.
