Posted this up on volksgirls but wanted to see that you lot think. still keeping the BBS rims, just got sick of cleaning them.
Had my eyes on these wheels for a while now, only just been told that i can have them 'free'. so then what do you think?
the wheels:

A quick photoshop ive done to see what they look like on:

don't know if anyones ever seen another mk2 with these on?
-
:smiley: Look nice and even better if u got them free :grin:
-
look cool and definately easier to clean for a winter wheel!
-
yay is that a thumbs up then? will be much easier to clean, will save time so i can do other stuff to it.
-
yes its a thumbs up! :afro: you have the joe seal of approval.... might as well lock this thread as thats all that matters! :laugh:
-
I like! Similar to borbets, what are they off and where do I get some!
-
Looks good :cool:
-
Very nice,good blaggage :wink:
-
it's a good look!!!!!!!!!! I'm thinking of finding something nice and different for my mk2 this is just the kinda thing, well done! Cant be doing with my cups anymore

A customer at my mates work left them there a few years ago. After having new wheels put on their Merc they had no need for them. Just need some tyres and wheel adapters now. wont be getting them for free :sad: lol. maybe some cheeky discount though :wink:
-
You're buying tyres & adapters?! Suddenly it makes sense to payout for a sorted set. You should consider spying other forums, there seem to be some 4 x 100 bargains going down in the hood recently :wink:
-
yeah i didn't realise they weren't 4x100. do you know the stud pattern? mercs are often 5x112 if so, you can't get adaptors!
-
I'd guess you're right Joe. But as I say when you factor in the price of hu adapters (second hand or not) Free wheels = false economy!

Couldnt agree more, liook nice and a piece of piss to keep clean :grin:

true dat. :P
-
hmm ok well not sure on the stud pattern. will ask my mate to measure them. will be gutted if i cant get them to go on. Didnt think id be saving money by getting the wheels free. just thought it would be something a bit different from what you'd normally see.
any help would be great.
thanks
-
find out the stud pattern and go from there. you might be lucky and find they're 4x108, i don't know of anyone who sells an adapter for that but it could be done by an engineer.
-
found out today the wheels are 5x108
-
not worth it flower, get searching on ebay!
-
Mega guttin darl..suppose now you can but sell them wheels and put the money towards a new winter set? :undecided:
Dinx :kiss:
-
gorgeous :tongue:
-
oh well. search goes on. no big loss :cool: really liked the look of them.
