i'm officially a wheel whore, with pics

[Mk2Adam]

and anyone know of their name? they look alley cat-ish to me.

[pettsy]

could ask the person selling them?

[Mk2Adam]

i did, but the guy just said he'd look into it and that was 4 days ago

i was more asking just on the off chance that someone might know, weren't holding out much hope obviously.

Hi,

I showed the picture to my dad (he owns a tyre & wheel shop), and he said they look like MSW/OZ ceres wheels.

I went looking on the german eBay for a similar set, and I found a set. Judging by the auction, they look like 4x100 PCD.

Here's the link to the auction;

nice one ollie, couldn't have been anymore help mate
i'm planning on buying these wheels and then refurbing them to look like those ones

[Giorgio]

For those that cant be arsed to click the link.....



They look sweet

[Mk2Adam]

they're 15" though (won't fit my mk2 or my future GT) so i'll be refurbing them and selling them on to 1 of you lucky people.....as long as i get them that is. would look super sexy on a mk4 me thinks

[toXXin]

The dishes on them wheels look different to the OZs

They look like Montego/Austin of that era wheels, which means the PCD's right but the centre bore's too small.

[Mk2Adam]

the guys being a pain really he advertised them as vw.....i asked him what pcd they were and he said he'd check 2moro....3 days later i sent him another msg asking again, he replied this evening saying they're 15"x7J.... soem people are soooo helpful sometimes, so i put a msg back with a link to a page explaining PCD and i asked him to tell me what cars they've been on as he can't seem to manage that.

Silly question, do you know the ET ? might help distiguish them as VW/Vauxhall/old BMW rather than say Ford.

From that single pic and the size, I would say they are MSW Kings in 4x108. But im probably wrong.

[Mk2Adam]

they're ET26....that the owner helpfully told me when i asked him the pcd

these wheels are a bit of an enigma, normally someone has come across a set of wheels at some point.

i'm only gonna bid if they're 100pcd so it would be helpful if the guy gave me a straight answer.

[Mk2Adam]

FINALLY got the answer i wanted and it's 100pcd and he did say before that they were VW so i'm gonna try and get them.

cheers for all the help guys, and i'll let you know if i win them.

Good luck Adam.

[Mk2Adam]

won these wheels today...can't say how much i paid as i'll be selling them on here when i've furbed them up, but it was cheap. only problem was that i "accidently" bought another set too so now i've gotta trek up to south east london tomorrow and then over to margate sometime (havn't aranged yet) so keep an eye open for me doug & dan.

my name's Adam and i have a wheel addiction

[Mk2Adam]

got my 1st set of wheels today, virtually perfect 15" alessio alloys with all centre caps, just a little cureable kerbing, with toyo proxies 2 tyres are almost brand new 1 is a puncture and 1 is close to the end of it's life....but can't complain for the price, plus it was near my nan's so got a sunday roast too


and off to margate monday morning to get the TSW thingys as above...ohhh i'm such a wheel whore
p.s if anyone likes these wheels they'll be up for sale shortly for cheap so PM me if you want 1st refusal
