My all time favourite alloys, perfect fitment, width, cheaper than new but theres the marks on them.

What do you think? would you?

If u like the style mate and theyre not too badly scratched get em!

Not my personal choice either but at least in 16" they wont look too small!

Go for it!!!!

to be honest if you like them get them, the scratches and marks are nothing, if you get them for a decent price then ur set, u get valves when u get tyres, (the tyre would immiadiatly deflate when pumped up if one wasnt on there!!!)
