Assessing interest - VW San Marino wheels
Posted: Fri Nov 09, 2012 7:26 am
Hey folks, I'm just gauging interest on my San Marino wheels as I am considering something new. These were fitted to the car when new (55 plate) and there are 5 in total, but I probably won't give up the spare unless somebody wants it for their spare in return plus cash.
Condition is okay, not great, the centers have no curb marks but are bubbling in places on the inside. The outer rims at some point have lost their lacquer (probably been dismantled and polished at some point in their life but then didn't bother to upkeep) as the original lacquer has a tendency to lift and go white.
These wheels are very rare and have not seen another set come up on any forum or eBay, many people are unaware VW even sold them! They were sold as an optional extra on sport model 9n/9n3s and I've seen them on a couple of other VW models.
Wheels are 16" 5x100, tyres would not be included (sorry)
Pictures below:
If little interest is gathered I'll probably keep them and get them refurbed first
Cheers!
