I have mk1 Motorsport with 15 bbs and they don't have grey centres but I'm can get a set with grey centres.
Could someone tell me if my Motorsport wheels are different from the other Motorsport wheels With the paint and are they all the same as normal 15 bbs.
Thanks

Same wheel, just painted differently. If you are asking whether there is a difference in value between a standard set or a Motorsport set, I would be inclined to say, no.
