Default Wheel code numbers

Hi

I need to know the part numbers for OEM wheels - painted and laser etched design.

My dealer seems to think there is only one type of OEM wheel and therefore says there is only one part number for the OEM wheels (pre '04 redesign) which is somewhat worrying!

They don't seem to recognise that there is any difference between the early silver painted wheels and the laser etched wheels!

Surely they should have a different part number? or did laser etched wheels replace painted design?

Help please

Thanks

RGB

Thanks for the early silver "painted" wheel codes Rogerio that will help!

simonprelude - Yes Diamond Cut is probably a better description, and no don't worry I know they are crazy money new. I am currently working through my options, refurb originals, buy part set (Diamond Cut) and need to get one more wheel to match etc.

I would ideally like to have a nice Diamond Cut set for the summer and then refurb the originals in anthracite with some "winter" tyres for the winter months.

If anyone has the Diamond Cut codes that would really help.

Thanks
