Random question. Wheel geeks required plz!

Bit of a random question fellas.

 

I've been given 3 15" alloy wheels with 205/50 tyres that I want to put onto my Corrado as winter wheels (the 4th wheel died in a kerb related accident!).

 

So I'm hunting about on eBay for a forth wheel, however, I can't seem to find them!

 

Basically, they look like the 5-spoke VR6 speedlines, but the spokes are a bit fatter. I've seen them on Mk3 Golfs and other Corrados. Has anyone got a picture of them and/or know what they're called?

 

Cheers.

If you've already got 3 why don't you put up a picture to show us!

Because my mate has borrowed them (+ emergency wheel jobbie) on his Mk3 Golf project at my local car club.

 

I guess I'll have to go and take a camera phone pic of them tomorrow and upload it here... :?

Is this the one, fitted to early Mk3 Golf GTI's?

Ah-ha! Thats them, I'm sure it is. The ones I have are without centre caps. Are they rare?

Monte Carlo I think.

Monte Carlo I think.

 

I'm guessing Monte Carlo's also, they were fitted to 1995 model Golf GTI's and 16V's - Part number 1H0 601 025F.

 

Is this number on them anywhere on the 3 you have?

Ok, I realise that these are not the most pimpest/scene/e38 wheels going, but German winters are harsh and I just want to spray them black (find some centre caps?!) and use them as winter wheels.

They are still on my mates car, so I can't see the part numbers :?
