I'm not sure on the model but they are part no: MZ556489 from mitsu Japan and they are about 95,000 yen each. I was going to have a friend in Japan enquire about them, but I'm happy with the BBS on mine anyway

You could just wait a few months and buy them at a US dealership. Saves u the shipping and customs charges.

BBS = $$$

When I was into VW's I was torn between two A2 golf's. I bought the one with BBS RC's on it because it had BBS wheels on it. I Still can't get over the quality and light weight of those wheels.

My springs are due to arrive on Monday from the US. So hopefully have installed by next week. Should have sway-bar and air-filter installed by then I hope also.

Then post some pics

These rims are light, they're one piece forged. When the guy was fitting them on the car, he got a few workers in the garage over to lift them *edit* lol, as in.... he showed em how light they are.
