Is this the 'spacer' thing that corroded, and they replaced due to this? Mine have corroded

17" is not that small, but I agree they do look like little polo mints on a GTI.

All this is good news as all four of mine are rusting on that hub bit. I've been meaning to start a thread on them for ages before the car goes in for its 2nd service in July so I will now be arguing very strongly for replacements. Mine are a lot worse than the photo at the start of this thread.

My monza'a are stored away at the moment as I didn't want them to get damaged over winter. In hindsight I might as well just have left them on the car waited for the white worm to appear and get a new set anyway.  :smiley:
