Tirerack not allowed to export BBS to Australia. I already emailed them.

Did they provide a reason?

There's a local distributor in Australia, and therefore they're not allowed to.

Try one of those drop ship companies. Buy and deliver in the UK/Europe, then courier via DHL etc to Aus? I had to do that for my airfilter. Shipping cant be more than buying wheels here.

Yeah, like "Price USA", used them for the Kyb shocks in the golf

Thanks. PCD is 5 x 100 for the PoGo, same as those wheels which are an accessories wheels for Bora and used by VW racing R32s. If anyone else is interested, offset is 38 and it is a 17x7.5.

I haven't entirely read your chain of chit chat on this topic but I'm 99% sure that if you're speaking polo 2010+ wheels specs then the offset is ET46 and 17x7, and yes the centre bore is 57.1. If you are speaking anything other than polo 2010+ then of course ignore this.

Found a wheel my missus likes, but BBS Australia wants $635 a wheel for it when it is half that overseas. Does anyone know a wheel shop in US/UK that can send BBS wheels to Australia?

These guys have them for $565 each...a little cheaper.

Hi all, sussing out if anyone is interested in the below here.

I bought a set of OZ Racing Superturismo LM for my Polo GTI, 17 x 7.5 et 35 and I mounted Goodyear F1 GS-D3 on them locally. Before I had them on the car, I thought I better checked with the missus to see if she likes them (given it's her car and all!). Well guess what? She doesn't. Yeah I know, should have checked before I bought them etc but too late.

Given how much trouble I went through to import these wheels from Europe, I thought I would check to see if anyone here wants to buy them to keep the peace at home. If no one is interested then I may still put them on. I paid over $1800 for the rims and $1070 for the tyres balanced and fitted. I have just picked them up from the tyre shop and they have not even been mounted on the car yet. Let me know if anyone is interested. Here are some pics. Thanks.

LOL she's crazy! My missus would love those on her CW TSI but no way I'm spending $2k on wheels for her car before mine
