P3rks 11 Posted January 29, 2013 As the title. My friend has just bought a Corrado 16v project and he's trying to get it back to standard-ish. He's after some original Corrado 4-stud alloys with decent tyres. Preferabley in great condition or above, or cheap enough to refurbish. What have you got?

Supercharged 2 Posted January 29, 2013 I've just bought 4 new Rainsports for £122 delivered - he could buy the same and maybe G60 steels (around £130 from VW) That's new wheels and tyres for £250! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good shout! I thought G60's were obsolete? Can the still be bought from VW? ---------- Post added at 11:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:40 AM ---------- Just checked. £194.40 all in for a set of four from TPS with trade discount. 17 left in the country. Centre caps are obsolete at £24.48 a set all in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah knew they were still available but remember TPS will only give around 10% off on general parts / non service related items where a VW dealer can do a lot more on stuff like this... should be able to get them for under £150 if they are selling on eBay for that.

Really? you can barter with the dealers? http://www.scottishvag.net/viewtopic.php?f=121&t=103946 I'll pass those on to my mate. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pbradley98 0 Posted January 29, 2013 I sometimes try the line 'any chance of a discount on that' with the dealers! Some of them are quite cool once they know it's for a Corrado - have had at times 10 or 20% discount off list price, but generally only when spending over £100!
