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:

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%.
