Yes, they are 16" BBS Montreal from MKIV GTI.

The 5 spoke on the 4mo are HAWT!

I got my set of rims second hand with tyres for $500 off a forum member.

Montreals look great - one of the better looking OEM wheels to come out :) Clean car mikinoz!

what you want to do is always have the Montreals free from brake dust
they look so much nicer when they are clean as!

ain't them good in silver?? there was one red GTI with the white ones, they were nice, but girl-ly(which the owner is a female)
btw, got one question, coz of the brake dust which haven't been cleaned for ages, with some rust in it, it sticks to some parts of the wheels which were hard to get off, and i don't wanna scratch the wheels as well... any products for cleaning off these craps??:)

It took this long for someone to ask/mention/notice.

10 minutes and some pin stripe tape for a few laughs...
