Is it possible to get the chicago alloys from any online vw parts websites? if not how much are they from the dealer? (In the UK by the way!)

Just to bump this up to the top.

I need two new ones since a prat of a taxi driver gave me the choice of kerbing two of mine, or having the side of my car scraped.:mad: :mad:
He u-turned, but first came into my lane to do it. Didn't manage to get his number, so 2 chicago's have now to be paid for out of my own pocket. Grrrrrrr

(only cosmetic damage tho luckily, so I can wait but would rather get them on now if anyone DOES know where to get them from).

Thats terrible but unavoidable on our poxy narrow roads, could you not get yours refurbished, their are some brilliant places out there. Im sure that would be cheaper than 2 brand new 18" alloys. NOT cheap. especially from a dealership!.
At least someone else is looking for an answer though!

Thought i would keep this thread alive, seems like a resource to find VW alloys would be pretty helpful if anyone can find one?!

I used a company called Wicked Wheels on many occasions to fix damage to my TT wheels. They were superb.
