Smoor roadsters staggered!

Featured Replies

As title, 7x13 front, 8x13 rear.

The set is complete, nothing missing, all wheel studs and 4 brand new centre caps (not shown in picture).

Tyres run are 165/55/13 nankang with suprisingly good tread left considering wheels are run at camber.

I had these imported from Germany. From what i can gather, they were the last set of brand new staggered wheels, as Smoor no longer make the 8j rim.

There's a couple of sets on German ebay but they look a bit shoddy and you won't know the real condition until you've paid for them and had them sent over. They've certainly become harder to get hold of in Germany as there were loads of sets when i bought these and now only a few. A quick glance over club polo and E38 leads me to believe they're quite scarce over here too.

Struggling for full on pics but here are the wheels, pic taken on my grey 6n about 2 wks ago (you can see the general condition):

They're only worth what someone will pay for them, so i'm taking a stab in the dark at £800 as they are with tyres and genuine centre caps... the centre caps cost me £50 alone and they're plastic!

As i said, i'm trying to get a feeler on whether or not it's worth getting rid of them, any questions will be answered.

Thanks

Well, the 7's would be fine. The 8's may poke a little bit, but my rears are on 10mm spacers remember and they've got decent stretched rubber so they're never gonna look stupidly poked on your mk2. Also, if you ran some camber then it would easily tuck, if thats what you want?

Don't really wanna break the set mate tbh, finding it hard enough to sell staggered anyway lol.

No worries dude, let me know if for some reason you change your mind :-D

They are for sale yes, and no they definitely DON'T need a refurb. Round by a couple of the fake split bolts there is a tiny bit of lacquer pitting and one of the wheel rims has a tiny little chip but they're practically mint, i've looked after them very well. I will get close up pics of all wheels if there's serious interest but i won't bother until there is.

Thanks :)

Replied mate.

Don't do it you crazy fool!!! Look so good! Sell your self to get money not smoors! Lol

Lol i do like them, but 13's aren't really big enough for what i want.

I know i'll kick myself for getting rid of some really rare wheels, but i'll find something else rare hopefully :)

I would be intrested In about 5 weeks time if you still have them? Let me know nearer the time, and as I'm local and you wont have to deliver I would offer you £480 with the 10mm spacers ;)

Will these fit a mk3 G40? I've just been asked and they've only got 239mm discs the same as my 6n haven't they so they should fit?

Higgo PM'd.

If these fit a 6n2 ill take em off your hands for £500 on friday? this is my first polo (used to have mk2 golf) & want to set it off & these wheels are ideal? email me at tom_miniracing15@hotmail.co.uk
