Title: gti 16" alloys wanted
Post by: GolfGL on 31 March 2006, 22:12
I'd like to get a set of the turbo alloys the one that have 5 double spokes if you know what i mean(montreals maybe??). Has anyone got a good condition set of these alloys or thinking of upgrading to 17s/18s/19s in the near future?

I thought the Montreal II still fetched good money Gaz??

They seemed to when I was looking on EBay a few months ago - £200-£400 a set, maybe they have come down lots.

The early turbo ones (montreal 1 ?) always seemed to be cheaper, reckon you should get a good set with good tyres for sub £200..

The split rim optional BBS are a corrosion nightmare - look nice though, but somehow look small for 16"

Thats why id like to go for the double 5 spoke type as they look easy to clean and after having some bbs style wheels i just cant be botherd as it took 5-10mins a wheel!!
Im looking to spend £100-£250 for a very nice set with good tyre tread depth.

Got to agree there, BBS wheels are a nightmare to clean :angry:

The set on my car below will be for sale in the next week or so.

Price will depend on the condition of the new tyres that I'm picking up tomorrow. (They're supposed to be about 4mm & 8mm (nearly new).

Sounds a bit steep to me, I sold a set of santa monicas with tyres last year too, 6mm tread £200.
Keep an eye on ebay and there are always sets of montreals and monty2's going for £100-150.  I bought a set of OZ super T's with new tyres on egay 3 weeks ago £250 delivered :undecided:
