Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • NSW BBS 17" 5x112 wheels with sporty 225/45 rubber w. only ~5k use and tons of rubber

    BBS RX 17x8, 5x112 pattern
    'weight-optimised' alloy wheels
    Maxxis Z4S (load 94 W ZR17) tyres with very sporty tread pattern and only ~5k use.

    (you should see most of the info about the tyre in this pic)

    I only put these onto the car in March and took them off in August, so they have only weekend use (around 5k on smooth, good roads, weekend drives).

    * Treadwear 340 so they will last a long time. Maxxis Z4S. Sporty tyres.
    * [Forum review link] [Tech link]
    * Wheels not kerbed; there are a couple of barely visible scratches which I will see if they polish out. Offset is best for Audi or Passat, but they did fit my Jetta.
    * You are welcome to come and see / try / test fit.
    * Located northern Sydney suburbs but easily reached via M4/M2/M7/F3!

    I'll just need to clean these up before taking & posting some individual shots. The one pictured is with the new tyres fitted, in March.

    Great contrast on a Jetta or dark VW:

    BBS RX 17x8. ET 35. 5x112 offset.

    Tyre info pic:


    Is $750 reasonable, considering the tyres alone would cost $600+ to get at your local tyre place?
    [Deja vu? Yes. I bought these late 2009 from someone on OzAudi. I recently bought the Enkei Racing 18s from someone there, too! Happy to ship if you buy and I can arrange shipping at your cost. ]
    ----
    I found a few examples of the wheels on light/dark cars, so you can visualise a test fit:

    Thanks for your interest! Reply, PM etc for any other details or to reserve/arrange to see!

        Hi DarkRS.
        It should be perfect for an A4.

        First person who replied (on OzAudi) is keen to put down a deposit; that person and geralis32 were PMd.
        Please PM me and I can keep in touch if these become available again, if it doesn't work out.

        Thaks everyone. I am glad to get some interest!

        Anyone intersted in a cheap set of 16s; OEM VW Jetta with good Pirelli P7 tyres? :p
