19" Monza alloys
« on: April 07, 2012, 02:12:23 pm »
Been looking ages at wheels as I may have mentioned on the wheel thread.
I love the look of the standard wheels but think 19's would be so much better.

See a couple have 19 inch Monza types on here but wheres the best place to source them.

Seen this on Ebay [ebay]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/19-NEW-VW-GOLF-MK5-GTi-HORSE-SHOE-GLOSS-BLACK-POLISHED-ALLOY-WHEELS?item=251029129507&cmd=ViewItem&_trksid=p5197.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D2%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D7552143544087857152[/ebay]

Any thoughts?

My thought exactly dmac!
At that price though would be worth being a spare set.

Anyone else have 19" Monza details?

Be careful with aftermarket alloys that are not well known for the durability. At my old work they sold a few cars with 'cheap' aftermarket alloys and they have cracked and under law had to replace them costing a few £££.

Some 19" Rims on a BMW split on the rears and all 4 22" rims on a Q7 split  :confused:

Very True.  :happy2:

There are so many many cheap chinese replica alloys on eBay.co.uk  :scared:

If you want a quality set you will have to spend a bit more than £400.

These ones on eBay.de (german eBay) are more expensive but High quality Italian ones that are TuV certified and they won't buckle or crack when whisper pothole to em  :wink:

I am still in search for some of these. The UK seller that I mentioned in the OP no longer does the ones a gave the link for.
(Typical if you required a replacement!!!)

The ones above you provide the link would be the ones that you had on your Sig I presume?
Did you buy them from Ebay in Germany?

Anyone have any details of a UK distributor?

Thanks for the help in the past Monte  :congrats:

I actually bought the ones of six pots dad  :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

(I won't tell you the great deal he did for me)  :laugh:

My Monza's are now my winter wheels  :signLOL:










The ones on eBay.de from LS CarDesigns are the only italian made Monza's I've seen for years.
They are TuV certified and have a 2yr guarantee.

I personally wouldn't buy the £400 Chinese reps.  :sick:

^^^^ been looking at these 19" for a while, can't decide on these or TD's  for my red mistress as her other set.  The red one on their for sale page has a very similar stance to yours Carlo.  :happy2:

So Monte are they actual LS CarDesign wheels that are on your car? They look good,

Would you recommend these wheels?  I'm looking for 18" Shadow style,

LS CarDesign are 8 rather the 7 1/2,  Does this make any difference? As in tires or anything like that?

Cheers

I had the Italian 19" Monzas on a previous MK5 GTI that I had.  They were on for 3 years without any problems. :happy2:
