Last Set I sold with caps and budget tyres with 8mm sold eventually. I got £50 for them. These days your better listing them on eBay and stating they will fit some VW's you'll get a better price that way.

Other alternative is to watch ebay for odd centre caps that need paint. I've picked up a couple of spares recently for about a Tenner each. Wait till you have 4 and then with a new set of Bbs or bmw stickers you're looking at around£150.

Depends how poverty stricken you are :D

I got £120 for the set. 2 good tyres and 2 very close to limit tyres (all budget various makes) rebalanced all FOC at work, and washed inside and out with oven cleaner! Came up really well.i had all the center caps too and a eBay wheel embalm sticker pack plonked on. Sold on the zone too. Made my 15" BBS wheels free......
