    Hi, first post for me . I was wondering what the members thought of these "detroit" wheels on ebay? Quality etc? Genuine ones are out of the question and a large tyre firm in Brisbane says he can get similar (also from Taiwan). Any thoughts?

    True that

    After more consideration, I should be spending my money on my upcoming trip to Europe not on wheels >_<

    Maybe later in the year.

    I'm just looking to see if there are any people interested at this point as I haven't even decided which wheels I would get and no idea what my Detroits are worth. Hence why i'm not posting this in the parts for sale section...yet.

    Also, anyone have an idea on what the VW Motosport wheels cost and where you can get them (other than VW dealer)? I rather like them.
    Hey mate,

    Have you sold these yet?

    Nope. Still deciding on wheels I want to replace them with. Now have to go to NZ for work next week so that's going to delay my decision making process further. That and a wife who thinks new wheels are a waste of money.

    Yeah, I hear you brother, my wife says the same thing but I managed to cook the books over the last few months and now have enough coin for a reasonable set of shoes. She probably won't even notice as she really isn't into cars, that's why she drives a Suzuki Alto LOL.

    So I will be selling my Denvers very shortly

    Mind you, this is the same woman who thought that buying the car was a waste of money but now takes it at every opportunity.

    Thinking about these ones. Just need to confirm with them they will fit.
