Anyone know what wheels these are or know of some similar, preferably available in the UK? They look like the famous polaris by seem to have thinner spokes and less of a star shape (unless thats just the angle) Eitherway I can't seem to find some clean, simple 5 spokes with a decent dish in 5x108 like these :-(

Those are JP Mk18's. They're not in production any more. You could get them in 17x7, 17x7.5, and 17x8.5. Very rare and expensive to get second hand. You can get a 17x8.5 set in very good condition for around $2000-$3000 here in Norway..

These are 17x8.5. Not my car!

This is a reply to your question on turbobricks.

There was a set that resembled these wheels some time ago on E-Bay, they where "Well used" and the person selling them was asking £350 if i remember correctly.Great looking wheel though.

This is a reply to your question on turbobricks.
Thanks, yeah I did ask him but not reply. However I found these Finichi Riminis as an alternative and will be more than happy when I can afford them and the adaptors they require, as they only come in 5x114.3!
