    Mk2 Steelies

    Just wondering where'd be the best place to source clean, original steelies for a Mk2... aside from ebay. Anyone have any for sale?

    Cheers!

    You can get G60 steels from ebay in the UK for around 50 pounds each
    Or you could try VW, part number 357601025M
    or you could get a set of 4 from big boys toys in the UK for $630 landed

    I'm sure a local option will appear before having to go overseas and pay big $$$

    I'm open to options, and I've already had a PM for a possible set in Sydney.

    Not all that familiar with Mk2's but I what had in mind was whatever size is standard on a '92 Mk2 GTI. What are the G60's like? I've Googled but without result. These are really just to do me until I get a set of BBS's or the like.

    Thanks for the quick replies!

    They are 15x6 but can be widened to look like this;

    that mk 3 doesn't have G60/corrado steelies. the bolt holes are more trapezoid rather than round holes, and came in 4 stud, and 15x6 et (I believe) is around +35 . those ones one the mk 3 are probably beetle or mk 4 steelies.

    mk 2 GTI's that came here, came standard with 14x6 steelies, with the round holes, et38.

    Nice! I love those steelies on the Mk3. Too extreme for what I have planned though. I'll just have to see what's on offer before shelling out.

    Thanks again lads.
