nick_karkie Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Ive got a set in my garage, I had them refurbed because in the original state they used to really be affected by the weather. My dad burst one of my tyres moving my car on our drive and I havent bothered to replace it and put them back on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 That mean they are for sale if so how much and do u have pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick_karkie Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Yeah I am thinking about selling them if you dont mind being patient because I am in Mexico until early april. I have attached some pics that I had on my computer. I bought them for £700 and they cost me about £300 to refurb and i put 2 new goodyear eagles on the rears costing me £300 only for my dad to burst one on a brick that was sticking out on our driveway. So really they need 3 new tyres so I am only looking for £500, if you are interested then let me know and I'll take some more pictures for you when I get back to England.

monsween Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 what size alloys do you have mate? I have the same ones but your lip looks bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick_karkie Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 They are 19" wheels but I dont kno the offsets because I bought them from a member on here and I had them in my garage in spain for 2 years before returning to england and refurbing them.

monsween Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 I've got the 18 versions so that may be why there is a difference in lip. Mine are flaking and peeling, seems to be a common problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsween Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Also lee if your not getting them can i have 2nd dibs I wouldnt mind another set of these as i love the wheels so one set for winter tyres and one set for summer tyres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick_karkie Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Yeah they all seemed to peel and flake unless they were looked after every single day. That laquer stuff that they put on the rim in useless. That is why I refurbed them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
