Default 17 inch Comet C Alloys with Falken ZE912 Tyres.

Comet C Alloy Wheels with 4 matching tyres for sale.

I've just removed my set from my V70 this week (I previously stole them from a C70 I had), being Cs they are 17x7.5J with an offset ET43.

They're all 100% straight with zero wobbles (even at double the speed limit!), no corrosion and just have light scratches to their original Hyper Silver finish with some minor chips to the lips as pictured.

The tyres which are all matching Falken ZE912 XL Tyres in 225/45R17 94W, same date mark of 2011 on each and 2 tyres have between 4-4.5mm tread remaining and the other 2 have about 6.5mm left, in other words they're thoroughly useable. Only selling as I've changed to BBS Propus with lower profile tyres.

They'll bolt onto all cars in this list, just check the offset for clearance etc (happy to advise there) in case you need spacers or not!

They will also fit cars in this list if you buy some 65.1 to 63.4 mm spigot rings (£10 or less).

Based on their condition and the fact they've got good tyres on I want £400 for them, I'll include the silver Centre Caps and chuck in a set of locking wheel nuts for a 850/x70 too if you want them.

I totally agree .......how an owner could allow the tyre garage to apply knock on weights on alloy wheels is beyond me.

Very ,very nice wheels .......untill the tyres are changed and weights removed!

I can't help but agree, there are marks where weights have been previously too. They were like this when I got the car, if a tyre fitter had done this during a tyre swap for myself I'd be a little rattled!!!

The wheels end on eBay tomorrow

It's too late to end them so they're going to the highest bidder!
