I don't think Trotty has renewed his membership recently
£850 without tyres is an awful lot I think these days for a set of 17" wheels. They would look rather special on my car though

Icy used to post loads of pics from FalkirkCruise website,
there was a silver one from there that i think was real.
and Akeemkings old purple one definately had them.
Mine came from EliteDirect, but i remember the guy from there saying they had to bring them in from France.

Guy on Corsa C bought blank ones (no holes) & had them drilled out
Then he painted them white, which IMO ruined them

I always thought Kosei were towards the cheaper end of the market for wheels back in the day, kind of like Dares, Team dynamics, TSW etc are .

I love them. Nice, deep, chrome lip on them, and the curvy spokes suit the Corsa's curvy lines
I'd say myke was ahead of the game when he got these... don't really think dished wheels were all that popular back then?? They look fresh by today's standards

And he had anthracite wheels before these, another bandwagon everyone seem to have jumped on
