Anyone have an idea how much the new 18" Neptunes will cost from a Skoda dealer?

Not being up to speed on the lingo of car forums Paul, what is a "curb hunter"?

FWIW chaps taste is a subjective thing, I thought I'd dislike the LEs 18" Monza's but have grown rather fond of them since I got the car, PITA to clean mind you.

I think he means that the shape of the wheel will catch on curbs easily, especially when driven by a woman ;)

Around £150 - £170 is my guess; Zeniths are IIRC £135 and B14s are £180.

Aha I see Steve I see, SWMBO is a better parker than me so reasonably safe. At the back of my mind though is a future upgrade to the Monza’s when/if they get damaged. Bahn cheers for costs, really like the B14s BTW just a level above acceptable costs to me, a set of 4 wheels for £500-600 is a good price to me, when it jumps to £750-800 we are in the realm of aftermarket upgrades gone crazy to my cost rational.

Do you mean these?

Oh no they are not!

If you look at the crook of the 'V', the TSWs are smooth like a letter Y, whereas the ones on the car have a distinct horizontal line giving it an angular look.

Yeah that is what I mean, When you look down the side of the car parts of the spoke actually sit wider than the tyre wall thus meaning if you get up close and personal with a curb the spoke will take the force not the sidewall.
