YAY 17's on the mk2, but question?

[ausgolfer]

Am over the moon my new(to me)... second hand 17s are here!!!




Am going to get them sand blasted and powder coated to remove the imprefections(quite a few not apparent in the pics).

BUT how do I remove the valve stems?? lol

[OEM G60]

They're nice, what are they ?

Take it your valve stems don't have a small nut on them then ? Nowhere to get a spanner on and loosen them off ?

[mikinoz]

Valve stems come off with a stanley knife. Or else get a pair of pliers and pull on them and they come out. Disposable.

[Tim]

yeah come on carl. Just give em a pull. I thought u would be good at that!?

[ausgolfer]

They're Lenso's(I know cheap and crappy knock offs) but they're a knock off of Kahn RSS's but they're about 800 a corner from memory so I went for the cheap and cheerfull.



and yes Tim I know what pulling is...... like what could be done to a certain someones missing VR6 fuel pump....

[ausgolfer]

I actually had a set of these(lensos) previously and they suited the mk2 down to a tee and I stupidly sold them, and been hunting a set even since.....

[Tim]

so how many different sets of wheels is this now?
lensos, bottle caps, simmons, bottle caps, lensos, lensos ?!

am I close? You change your wheels more than you change your undies!

I have excellent personal hygene!

Will be sticking with these for some time.......unless I win lotto in which case I'd shell out for the real deal Kahns..... and yes would still drive the mk2 regularly if I won lotto.

Tim where's ur VR6 fuel pump???

[evorobin]

Those rims aren't a million miles off the 16" sparco ones I bought for the R specs. 17's just make you want to slam it on bags!
