Mmmm....I paid £50 for mine a month or so ago with 4 good tyres! Might have to sell them on!

mk4's are cheap enough for young drivers now, and they are switched onto the concept of oem alloys for insurance purposes. i have seen those fetch that without tyres

Good point - plus they can sell their aftermarket rims for some dough to put towards insurance

plus OEM means better quality as standard...or at least less chance of a duff set.

True - I only ever buy OEM or BBS

Sell them & buy some VR6 BBS wheels they go for £50 as well! That was one of the reasons I was surprised these went for so much because VR6 wheels are awesome
