Hi guys,

well i have had my mk2 vrs for a week and been looking into getting some nicer looking OE rims than the 17" Zeniths, i do like them but think a 17" alloy looks lost on the Skoda.

So been looking for some 18" Neptunes but i have found them rather hard to get hold of or the ones that are available are very pricy, so been looking on e-bay and spotted these http://srx.uk.ebayrtm.com/clk?RtmClk&u=1H4sIAAAAAAAAACWMUWuDMBSF3wv9D8Lo3qK5iYlJQYa1tgbtLMSuDArDrqOTzipWaffvF%2BfLPd859577pPurFfRnC6SF5ZywuSusjc4tgoFMJ23vf3ddc5g7zv1%2Bt7%2BOxa%2F9Wdv9xSm7ygGB3vZonaUrtEk4WucKEYylGYBRHORhvAjCBOV79Yr0NksitM1SpeNoiYI0zd7RPo6iVCP2ACDIAYq5pNLjwhUvH117uZWng9%2B41MV2RTh9HrKmaKvbwS9%2BzvWMLrUKZ4SX3c2wmhFGFqPvjd%2BFY6KCf9mNslKhHv3KrHndXc0pMINNVZ8MuxhTYBRLRsWQDq85nU6K2gczy5MPngRu%2BGgQc8KFN52UQ%2B5SKQiAJFhIITwmTa29DLU%2F81e6b2cBAAA%3D&ch=3&g=0ca62b871350a02653132f63ffce8d48&i=272099754&aii=1439821192089887593&lid=1062687&m=270252π=4340

has anyone bought a set?? if so what was the finish/weight of these alloys like??

cheers

I've had bad experiences with replica's, I'm sure they've come on in recent years and vary in quality very much like OEM but the finish on mine deteriorated quite quickly.

My money would be on a set of used OEM's + a refurb.

They may be hard to find but they do come up from time to time. Stick with the Zeniths too, these are more popular on the used market in 18" compared to the Neptunes.

yeh i hear what your saying about replica alloys, as i had some utter rubbish alpina replicas year and years ago (i'm 42) but a mate has had a set of the BBS CH reps for about two years and they are still mint,

And if my Zeniths were 18" i might have stuck with them.
