Hey guys and girls

Got my car washed today, and the jetwash really did make a meal of my alloys (they've had it). 50% paint - 50% oxidized alloy

I'm busy paining them with black Hammerite for the moment, just to make it a little less.. erm... noticable lol.. I know... horrible, tacky etc etc.. but it's temporary! lol

I am either looking for a nice-ish replacement set to go on my T4 (i dont want to spend too much just yet, or a really cheap (but not really nasty) set to run on whilst the originals are sandblasted / properly refurbed

cheers

Mike.

Hi there,

I have a set of Spectra ones, without tyres, that are going cheap. They will be a mixture of ones I'm currently running on my V40 and ones I've just bought for the tyres.

They are currently in Manchester with a friend of mine but he's bringing them down this weekend. I can get photos together then.

They are in pretty good nick. I'd say they would have to be your cheap set to run on whilst yours are refurbed! Got some dents etc.

I was looking for £55 plus delivery but open to offers since I just want shot of them!

Let me know if they'd be of interest and I'll sort out pictures then.

Many Thanks,

Daniel.

Heh... the local scrappy actually dug me out a set with 2 legal (but crap) tyres for £60, so i'm sorted now thanks

But if i hear of any others after some runner alloys, i'll point them this way
