Several people replied--but I cannot get to their saved addresses. So I am reposting. I am selling 4 brand new VW 'Carat' alloys, no lug nuts/bolts nor center caps. I have to sell these so I can buy some 15" alloys. I traded for these from a guy who bought them for his van--but sold the van before he ever mounted them. I went to the dealer last week to price them---does anyone pay the dealer price of $430 a piece? With out lug nuts/bolts and w/o the center cap!! At half that price I would think I was ripping people off. Anyone interested--let me know. >>
hey, people, FYI you can use Audi 5000 lug bolts to mount these Carat alloys on the front. (cheap) and to mount them on the rears, i got a line on some cheap alternative rear lug nuts...if anyones interested, I'll dig up the guy's name... chris |
