If they are becoming rare then you shouldnt really expect a bargain. I think personally that is a good price.

First car so first time i've put alloys on, Am i going to have any problems regarding say the bolt size(thread or diameter), and also the hub will it fit straight away or will i need spigot rings..........is there any chance the hub will be too small? :S

Didnt buy these wheels when i went to pick them up they had plenty of lacquer spots (only one had been kerbed though) and marks all over them from the lacquer spots>>>>>>>>>> How much is it to get these refurbed ...... say blown over and a new layer of lacquer beign put on? Does anyone else have this problem or can give me some advice on it?

No that was to buy the wheels.........not to refurb them, they dont need a full refurb like a change of finish or anything just lacquer i reckon. Do you think i'll be able to get it done cheaper than that?

Depends where you look. Expect someone will do it cheaper.

£200 for Rims with no tyres then??

Seems a little Steep?

That what i said, I havent paid it anyway because of the lacquer spots (so with refurb it would be those rims at about 400 without tyres which is well to much for me. Could get them for 170 but didnt want to, if they were perfect condish i would of definetely.
