Default What alloy wheel is this folks(pic inside)

My mate acquired this 19" rim but were not too sure what it is/if its worth anything.










We think we know what make of car its off but not any exact names/models.


Cheers

Bently is the word i was looking for yeah.

The guy who he got it off said it was a Bently wheel.

So how much would this be worth do you reckon? even if its a rep it must be worth a few quid.

You do realise that you will now be banned for life for asking what its worth?

I would say not very much. How many bentley owners will be trawling Ebay looking for second hand wheels?

Im sure people are smart enough to work out BM08's mate has got a spare wheel, without me asking what its worth. .

Anyway's thanks alot guys so far, and thats a good point about Bently owners not looking for a spare wheel on ebay never thought of that

Most of them will have Replica or Non-Genuine etc stamped on the inside somewhere.
