Got a set on order, but havent heard from the bloke for a while so getting a tad concerned...

I've never seen the above style. Has anyone else?

Many thanks Paul

Checked that website though, and I can't see these offered in 8x17, which is what I ordered!!

An advert on rallycarsforsale.net offered these for sale, new and boxed, etc.

Nope, they're just example wheels.

5-stud too..

Wheels I've bought were on the terms they are new and in OZ boxes.

Similiar, but not exact.

Also, I needed a set of 17s for track use. Ones in sig are 18s. No point spending £k's on suspension, lightness and power to be wrecked by 18inch wheels with space for only skinny, short road tyres

The ones in the pics look like centrelocks to me , theyve been redrilled , you can see the peg drive holes on the back of the rim and where the new stud holes are its really thin to the centre bore !

The centre bore in the pic Paul posted, looks far bigger than those in my pics, or do you think that is just down to the camera angle?

Mr 19" - Are yours centre locking? Or have yours been re-drilled?

Thanks
