newbie after advice alloy wheels :)
« on: 16 August 2012, 19:40 »
hi ive recently bought a 1.8t mk4 gti, the only problem is it has got R36 replica alloys on :/ painted grey, and im after some standard gti alloys, is there a place i can advertise too swap these alloys? they have got really good tyres on and are in OK condition, im not looking for any money i just want a straight swap :) the bloke who i bought the car off told me he paid a fair bit for the alloys and tyres.
thanks in advance :)

lol meet you half way :P

what condition are your alloys in pal?? my r36 alloys are sprayed gun metal grey, but it was only spray, if you got rid of the grey paint they would be nearlly brand new and they tyres are quality aswell :)
