HI,

Firstly hello, as I am a newbie. I bought a golf gti brand new in 2006 and have just purchased another one (too good you see).

I am after a set of 18" Monza alloys genuine bbs ones as the car I've bought has replicas on and all be it a good set with brand new tyres I know they arent quite right and dont look 100% to me, so is anyone able to help me find a set please?

I never thought a set would be this hard to find

appreciate you help, many thanks chris :smiley:

i really wanted the 18s on mine, so when i was looking at a second hand one at a dealers which only had 17s i asked them to look up getting me some 18s for it. I cant remember exactly but it was something like £1200 without tyres! They are very difficult to find from anywhere else though as I, and now you, found out. It seems like stupid money to me, but if ur desperate then maybe stupid money doesnt matter!

so is anyone able to help me find a set please?

I have a very nice set of 4 genuine unmarked 18" Monza 2's with Conti Sport Contacts in my garage.

All 4 are similar condition to that in photo (18"s on car, 17"'s in foreground)

All OEM BBS with original tyres (about 4 - 5mm tread left) and original balancing etc.  Fully polished and protected with many layers of Klasse Sealant Glaze

I'm open to good offers  :evil: :laugh: 

PM me if you're interested

They were going to go on E-bay soon
