Powder coated 2 years ago (cost £160) still in great condition, they come with four 165 michelin MXL tyres on with loads of tread left approx 5mm. All 16 bolts available and the centre caps too. Snatch my hand off at £100 the lot!!

No Tim, im not selling up, the BX is running as well as ever, off to France in it again in May.............. i need a bit of cash so things will have to go. Ive also got a near mint blue/grey interior from the TGD up for grabs if anybody is interested, thet were only used for 28k, like new really. Hey Tim, ive got a set of 41/2 J VW GT Wheels for sale, suit your bug?

Mmm wonder who that was?!

Im gonna ask, why would you have 165's on speedlines? 5.5j would much prefer 185 surely?

Sorry, just curious.

Much softer ride. when I changed my 165/steels to 185/alloys the ride was ruined, I felt every bump in the road. I reduced back down to 175 Mitchelin Energy tyres which was the minimum I could have as mine where 6" wide and even this small reduction (with decent tyres) transformed the ride back to soft and comfy, I would have gone to 165's if my alloys had been 5.5J.
