Jim 2 Posted May 1, 2004 I was buying some bits and pieces from the dealers today, and looked across onto the used cars forecourt - I couldn't help but notice they had a Golf MK3 convertible parked up fitted with some suitably un-common 4 stud BBS Solitudes! Wonder if they'd do me a P/X on my tatty old BMW E30 BBS's :) :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanoVR 0 Posted May 1, 2004 I just sold a set of 15" BMW alloys on Ebay for £175!! You see sets of Solitudes for not much more than that, so why not, put your car up on bricks, sell your Beemer alloys, and buy a set of solitudes!! :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted May 1, 2004 Yeah - the problem is that they were 4 stud seanoVR - you get plenty of 5 stud sets floating around, but not many 4 stud sets! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Geo 0 Posted May 1, 2004 I saw 4 stud solitudes on ebay.de last night. Was half tempted to buy them, see if they suited the mk2 and sell them on if they didn't! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted May 2, 2004 ...not as rare as 4-stud 16" BBS Anniversary Split Rims tho, found on the MK4 Cabs, rare as the proverbial i hear... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted May 2, 2004 The 4 stud Solitudes seem to show up on the german eBay a bit more frequently, as they were the standard wheel on the Polo Colour Concept (I think) which was just a version of the Polo. They don't seem all that popular over their either strangely enough so they never get too expensive when they crop up :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
