If they are, Baldbazza might be interested in this one:

I'm looking for a new pair since one of mine got smashed by a stone on the motorway (i.e. it did its job)

Not sure Adam, they look the same as Mk1 alloys but its a Mk2, if you ordered alloy wheels as a option on any bx that wasnt a (mk2) GTi/16v thats what you got, I thought they were the same size as the standard rims so the tyres size of 165/70 14" was the same. I have alot of brochures but theres no mention of different size of wheels for alloys

Adam why not ask the seller if he can take a look at the tyre size, if they are millimetric then its worth £75 for the allloys alone! And i would happily buy the sunroof deflector from you so i t would owe you even less! :D

This is also on BX for sale and wanted folks. I put it on there because I knew Kitch had asked over metric wheels before.

Note the sunroof deflector which seems so much in demand lately :wink:

Hey thanks Adamski - they certainly look like millimetric alloys and I think Baldbazza might be very interested :P I've posted a question to the seller asking the tyre size - that should clarify. Hope he replies in a slightly smaller font size - that ad did my head in!

Adam, assuming your PM to Kitch is about the wheels, could you PM me as well? He'd originally posted the wanted ad for my BX GT before I'd signed up to the club, and he's out tonight.....
