    Anywhere from $700ish for a Bluefin self-loader through to $1700ish for something very well marketed & high in popularity.

    You have a TDI. Suggest you have a look here http://www.vwwatercooled.com.au/forums/f28/

    I knew you did something & that you give the car a once-over. Probably a good thing to have some hand-holding if customer is a bit uncertain.

    I'm not sure if I follow, but you can PM me if you want to know more. I don't want to discuss that in the open forum.

    Translation:

    I knew you did some type of tune.

    I know you give the car a basic check-over before & after the tune to make sure it's running properly.

    Jetta 2007 doesn't appear to have any experience in these things so choosing a vendor local to him to hold his hand is a good idea.

    I'll look into it a bit more and consider the remap.

    Looking at replacement 16 inch rims for the car as the existing ones have quite a bit of previous gutter rash.

    Can anyone suggest a decent set of 16 inch rims, preferably VW OEM but don't have to be, that would look good on the car? Refer to pictures on page 3 for the current rim type. I would like a set either new or second hand but with no gutter rash.

    In addition, can anyone tell me where I can find the part number on my wheels? I think this is the stock wheel that is fitted to the car:

    Which comes up with a couple of part numbers 1k0 601 025 16z (grey)
    1k0 601 025 8z8 (diamond silver),

    Just want to confirm somewhere on my rims what mine might be specifically.

    Take wheel off & partno is cast on the spoke.

    Any VW/Skoda/Audi 16" rim will fit if they are 5x112 PCD (Golf, passat, jetta, superb, octavia, a3/4/5/6). Later Audi are approx 66mm centrebore & need hub rings to bring them back to 57.1mm.

    What looks good is entirely up to your own taste.

    There are plenty of 16" rims out there. You won't pay more than $300 for a set in immaculate condition - probably with tyres. I have a set of Audi 16" on the forum that are 99% quality (theres a 2mm chip on the face of 1 wheel) and they are <$200.

    Ebay, gumtree & forums (vwwc, vwgolf.net & ozaudi) are good sources

    Thanks Brad. I quite like the existing wheels on the car, I think they're known as bionline or biolines 16 5x112 wheels. If I could find a new set of those somewhere I would be stoked.

    Where should I look? Ebay and gumtree dont seem to have any up, at least not that I've found...

    Thanks Anthony.

    Where can I get a brand new set of Atlanta 16 inch wheels from in Adelaide? Don't mind buying from interstate/overseas also.
