g60_Pete 0 Posted June 5, 2005 no wait its not like all those other threads!!!! i want to know all the different wheels that came as standard with corrado's currently im running the original bbs's on my g60, they are in need of some wheel acid but fairly good cond, just some slight curbing. now, here's the question, did the g60 come with any other wheels? the reason i ask is that surely if other g60's didnt have bbs alloys i can swap em over to a different set and not tell the insurance company because they were standard! i'd quite like a set of the VR alloys, but obviously i cant have them because they be 5 stud. i quite like estorils but wanted something with more gap between spokes.. anyway enough ranting somebody help me!!!

chrishill 0 Posted June 5, 2005 IIRC the g60's came with sebrings for a very short period, but i dont think they'd be quite what you're looking for. have you checked with your insurance company to see how much alloys would add to your policy? mine only put £40 on top of what I was already paying...

chrishill 0 Posted June 5, 2005 sebrings were standard on all the 1.8 16v's, have a look in the gallery quite a few people have them. they were also used on the golf rallye i think? £200 for a £100 set of wheels is extortion...how can they possibly justify that? off the top of my head: 1.8 16v - sebrings g60 - sebrings breifly then BBS vr6 - speedlines although the storms had different ones which i cant remember the name of... 2.0 16v - estorils I think the 'jet' special edition had different rims too, but i dont remember exactly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaveStorm 0 Posted June 5, 2005 The very early VR6s came with the 5 spoke Monte Carlo alloys as found on early Mk3 Golf 16v. I think the later Corrado 2.0 16v and 8v came with a style called Westwood, which are also 5 spoke. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g60_Pete 0 Posted June 5, 2005 ooh, damn you all i need pics been scouring ebay all morning to no avail. not too fond of sebrings, the solitudes are quite nice though i have to say. monte carlo? westwood? i am truly confuzzled. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
