Hi Gareth
Sorry, I didn't mean to confuse - they were banded when we bought them.
In a pretty rusty state, hence the story I posted at

All good clean fun?!
Cheers, Chris

been over 10 years since you posted but im thinking of using the same wheels on my volvo.

THe ones i've seen have got 'unilug' stud holes on so im a bit unsure how that will work out.

Did yours have unilug.
Do you know the make and date of the rims.
cheers
