These aren't mine, I wish they were. I'm posting this link so they get heaps of attention and get above my price range. This is because I currently have THREE sets of wheels and only one car. I literally do t have anymore space and let's face it this is becoming an addiction.

Love that colour though, wonder if it would look good on my 7 slots?

What would they look like on my mk2? And what would it take to fit, just adapters?

I saw those, was tempted but i'd imagine they'd be in imperial measurements.

Mate can you explain that to me because I'm a novice. What difference would that make?

The stud pattern would be something like 4 and 3 eights inches which would work out to something weird like 111.2mm which would require some expensive custom made adaptors.

With them being on ebay you'd have to buy them before being able to measure them first and if they're funky stud pattern you'd end up with useless wheels. Some bargains ain't bargains!

Because the listing was so vague and it said vintage BBS for Merc's PCD 5x112, BMW's PCD 5x120 etc, older versions had weird stud patterns, that's what made me slightly dubious of them. Nice looking wheels though.

That's awesome I would never have thought of that. Hugely important when buying wheels off ebay! :embeer:
