Hi Brendan Vw sportline wheels are one of the very few wheels that are rated for the Cali
There are multi spoke sportlines or the more modern ones that I have on mine. Word of caution
The early multispoke ones will not fit the 180 because of the bigger rear brake's. have a word with Alex at smg he sorted mine out for a great price

Be careful that they are the new style Sportlines (5-spoke) like these;

as the older style ones don't fit the facelift 180 due to the larger disc calipers on the front

so NOT these;

*edit... Sorry Kev, just saw you already said this :doh

Banwy Vans have got a few variations for around the £600 per set mark.... with tyres for less than a grand. All genuine Sportline.

Being a tiny bit 'old skool' VW (just a tiny bit)

It's hard not to like these Borbet Wheels

And SMG - the Ethos Alloy Wheels are very nice and they have a fantastic deal on for a set at the mo.

Love those Borbets... Would look good on the T4... And 17" is a good size for the Multivan... Just may have to take a closer look.

I am deeply in love with those Borbets lol... Seriously in 17 inch guise, would love a set on my Beach.

They do 16 inch as well, I think with the van lowered they'd still look good

Sorry that you had a bad experience, I have onoly just seen this.

Did you manage to get a set of wheels in the end? I know our sets pretty much don't have any movement in the price which is why we have a set price for them.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Cheers

Hi Alex

Out of interest what is your set price on the sportlines?

Steve

 

[smgcowfoldparts]

Sportline wheels and tyres are £900 + VAT.

Thanks

Ok thanks Alex that's not as bad as I was expecting tbh. Looking at the sportlines, bike rack and side bars in the next few months.

Hi Alex

What tyres are they?

Thanks
Mark

 

[smgcowfoldparts]

They are a budget tyre, otherwise the costs is prohibitive for a set of wheels and tyres.

I'm pretty sure that we have a set of sportlines with brand new continental tyres that are coming in next week though.

cheers

 

[markh]

Thanks Alex

Not sure I've got the budget for them at the moment (and I really need to wear down the 17"ers a bit more first), otherwise I would have been interested in the ones with the Continentals on. I definitely wouldn't put cheap tyres on them.
