Default Galaxy alloys for sale! 200/700/900...

Ive decided to sell the Galaxy alloys from my 940 to help fund an LPG conversion on either this, or the other 944 I own.

TBH, I never really got used to the look of them and prefer the stock wheels!

I bought them about 18 months ago from a fellow forum member. They had been refurbished in a lovely anthrecite colour and had new Kumho tyres fitted. Smashing!

Today they are practically as I had them. Ive done about 10,000 miles but theres still stacks of tread left on the tyres. The rims have no kerbing scrapes or dinks but theres a couple of spots that need touching in on the rear wheels on the very edge of the rim, no bigger than about 3mm. If I get time ill touch these in myself.

The wheels are in Stoke on Trent and im after 400pounds ONO





Better pics to follow.

I should prob know this but what size are the wheels 15" ?

Also IMO it would be worth getting some more detailed pics I reckon that would improve your chances of selling them

Cheers,

Could you tell me what size tyres are on them? I'd do terrible things for a set of galaxys, especially in anthracite but I might not be able to scrape the money together this close to christmas!
