Monza ii wheel refurb

[coolhandluke]

£250, that is cheap compared to the quote Lepsons gave me of £320 + VAT.

Over here in N.Ireland they are asking £480

That makes me feel better about the quote I got. Can't wait to get them done just saving for them at the mo.

£250 that's mega cheap! I really wish I didn't buy my Omanyts the more I see these about on the road, doesn't help I parked next to this, this morning at work :( Someone up there is playing with me!

I love the diamond cut finish on the Monza II's. They are one of the main reasons I was originally drawn to the GTI.

Mine could do with a refurb but I would probably go for the diamond cut with black inserts

I just saw a mk6 gti with the monza shadows and they looked awesome, think I might have to go with them after all.

Will let you guys know when I decide.

Have you had a look in the mk5/6 wheel thread?

You can get them done OEM.
OEM but with black inserts.
smoked chrome (no risk of whiteworm)
matt black with chrome lip (like the european ed30s had)
gloss black
gloss black with red lip (like a few here have done)
white.

Depends on the colour of your car.

 dont get why smoked chrome has no risk of whiteworm? are you saying black does ?

My personal all time fav wheel for the MK5 is the OEM's with Black Inserts



Saving up for some as we speak, wish I never bought my Omanyts lol

that looks very nice  

prefer the monzas to those fiddly hard to clean ed30 wheels

If you read the whole post it tells you that some people have smoked chrome or silver coated alloys there is no mention of them diamond polishing the face. Basically there is no anti White worm treatment apart from getting them properly coated like any normal alloy.

Have decided to go black, just got to decide to go with satin or gloss!?

Basically, diamond cut finish is prone to whiteworming. Only a non-diamond cut finish will be free from this problem. Smoked chrome has a look that is not too dissimilar from diamond cut - have a look at RedRobin's car.

Just had mine done by SEM in Sunderland, £288 and they lent me a set of wheels and tyres whilst they were doing them.

They've done a cracking job

[jh4610]

They do look good

Is that the standard diamond cut finish?
