ATS-rims was : death of my 16v

Hello Ben, Scott and all other listers asking me about  the ATS...

at first, I have no easy possibility to ship them overseas, they're much to heavy
to go with Deutsche Post, so I would need a freight forwarder like UPS ( expensive ).

I can feel with you that you want those wheels, especially because I don't want
much money for them. BUT my honest opinion about it is, that those wheels aren't worth
the costs & trouble of shipping them.
Personally, I made the mistake to get some used MOMO rims from a Scirocco driver in the USA,
I had much costs ( $ 200 for the rims, $350 for shipping and customs, and after all I 
was not satisfied with them at all ( bent and without the promised papers, so useless for me ), 
they're lying as expensive junk in my garage.....

To prevent you from similar disappointment I'd suggest to go for a set of new ones,
please look at their web-site :
http://www.ats-wheels.de/cgi-local/f_model.cgi?de+VW
you can find prices there in DM  ( 1DM is about $0.5 )
so you have an overview about the costs. 

in addition, on the ATS-website  they name a contact in U-S-A which is :
