So the teledials are off , the g60's are on. Im on a hunt for a set of wheels :D

I have about 800-900 quid to spend. I dont mind a 2nd hand set in v good condition.

I have g60 280mm brakes and i would like to see these through the wheels...

Anyone any ideas ?

Alulines would be my next choice of wheels (but I'm lining up a 2.0 FSI Passat for the Autumn)

Although you won't see your brakes: Schimdt TH-liners!! 8)

Or what about Silky's WRD Meshs? They look similar to the ones dpowers selling, and he had a feeler for them in the for sale section not so long ago

I got a set of BBS RS's if your interested.

- 4x100
- 6.5" all round.

The wheels are split at the moment and come with new dishes, original bolts, centre caps and valves.

I want £850. I can build them for you for and addtional £50. The centres need a refurb, can get this done at extra cost.

Likewise I have some BBS that I am willing to sell, they are RMs though, not RSs!

Currently split as I have removed the original (aluminium) 0.5" dishes, I have a pair of 1" stainless steel dishes, a pair of 1.5" stainless steel dishes, the original (genuine BBS) bolts and centre caps, new valves, no tyres. Yours for £700 plus carriage.

I would want to get them done black so refurb, build up, new tyres (200quid) & delivery would make the cost too much mate. Thanks alot though!

Do you have any pictures of your wheels mate? Quite intrested in these so i have added you to MSN.

How hard will it be to rebuild the wheels back up myself - just a case of the bolt back in ? I rebuilt my own GTI BBS alloys, is it just the same? Are the bolts you have new (or look new enough). I would probably be getting the centres done in black before the rebuild!

Would you take 650 if i arranged a courier?
