Then in that case, it'll look amazing, go for it!!

The Galaxies look good as they have a deep dish look but the Abes car look class with the standard wheels and it suits it, I happen to have Galaxies on my car but for the expense keep yours if they are shot, Antz 960 breaking has a good set on I assume for sale much more reasonable than £500, for money get the Polaris which I would pay my hard earned cash for if you had a 940 then defo change for better rims.

Its a lot of trouble for a similar look wouldn't you say!

Any wheels for sale? I'm getting much less fussy now as I need a full new set of tyres..... so tempt me with what you've got 16" and above. Consider everything with and without tyres

I did know of someone selling a set of 17" Volans that need a refurb. Should bolt straight on the later 960.

Hi Ade.

I've got a set of Arakis 17" multi spoke jobbies off the S80 if you're interested?

2 wheels have decent P6000s, 2 have brand new (not even done 100 miles) budgets.

Pretty decent nick, although 1 has a scuff to the spokes.

Let me know if you're interested.

Steve

I could try and get a couple of pics for you today, no promises though!

Erm... Dunno about price, prob looking for £150 as the tyres are worth that on their own.

Would prob have to wait for you to be passing through on a shoot though, would cost a fair old whack to post and even more to fuel the T6 to deliver them!!

Hey, maybe I could give the fleet a scrub and we could have a mini shoot!

Could be into them! I will be passing next weekend, but also a courier is under £30, so not the worst. Where are you/how far off the M6?
