BenV Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 is that what the set came like new, 4 on the front and 5 on the back? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted February 7, 2009 Author Share Posted February 7, 2009 yes mate. the set consists of two 4-spoke wheels for the front (4 spoke rather than 5 to reduce the weight to be turned, if u believe Rays lol) and two 5-spoke wheels for the rear (5 spokes rather than 4 for added stability), which is why the set is called Volks 5/4s.they originally came with Volks 5/4s decals in red on them but i havnt replaced them after the refurb as I dont think the wheels need any decals on them, they look spot on as they are.Phil.
