RS TT replica wheels from AmD are £112.50 each +VAT (without tyres)
Theye come with cheapo looking center caps but they will sell you the OEM center caps for approx £65 if I recall correctly

Dunc is spot on with the prices, got mine about 4 weeks ago now. The plastic centre caps are <beep> IMO and its worth the extra dosh for the OEM ones.
It's cheaper to source your own tyres, saved myself about £200 and got Toyos [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Ok great, i will email vag-parts to see if they can get the centre caps.
I have Toyo's on my 17" alloys at the mo, don't know if i should change to Bridgestone SO3's ?

at £102 each for the S03's, they must be worth a try [img]images/graemlins/1syellow1.gif[/img]
One thing I will say, keep your receipt for the genuine centre caps, a couple of mine have gone a bit scabby as it looks like water has got underneath the silver finish.
Have you also seen the 19" RSTT's? They do look the dogs IMHO [img]images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

What a bummer.
You should be able to get them fixed for about £50 a rim. But I would think about two new wheels, and keeping a kerbed one for a matching spare. The other kerbed one you could sell on to someone who only has four so they have a matching spare too. Just an idea.
And in future, hide your keys when you aren't in your car [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
