On the site it doesn't state a 108 fitment but i bet they would be interested to make them if there were. and they offer 8 or 9x17

A place by me sells them, there meant to be VERY good reps! At Ł500 a set too you cant go wrong really, whats a genuine set of CXN's, Ł2000?

*EDIT* The place by me can apprently get them with a blank PCD too so you can have them drilled to whatever you want...

 

new wheels aswel chirs?

 

I think a new set is around Ł2500-2600 all in so a big difference

 

Good find, does it state what offset they are or is that optional?

 

You would have to ring and ask - for me i would go with a 9" rear and try for ET35 and 8" front with ET40 i think that works out similar to what i have

Give them a call if your after some mate.

 

Thank you!!!!! I seen a set of those at my parts guy, hadn't time to ask him price, fittment, the box said 17x8
quality was great ie the studs are metal and the center is a big heavy machined lump
I've seen worse quality bbs ffs

 

how do they differ to the cxn,s chris ,they look pretty identical and what a great price

 

Cheap copies that's how................

Abit like going down your local Market and buying those Lovely Lacoste shirts that shrink and rip after 1 week, you know the kind...

Only original for me i'm afraid...

 

i know there copies and they will probably by cast so not split rims but i was under the impression even genuine CXN's are quite soft alloys and can damage quite easy with more expense to repair.

Pete

 

I was wondering who'd be first to bite... so predictable Pedro...

 

i personally would rather CXN's but it makes you wonder what the 2.5k is for as neither wheel manufacture are selling at a loss.

Pete

 

To be fair Pete i think they're a great buy, they look spot-on and if i were buying again i'd defo think twice and consider these.. ESPECIALLY the fooking nightmare you have with Compomotive...

 

Are they 1 piece? I am glad I did the CXN thing years ago or i'd be gutted with these these reps were about!

Mind you CXN's are reps of BBS RS's anyway

 

Very true Andy..

 

but pete wouldnt these be nice to drive around on[for photoshoots etc],and then stick the real deal on for the shows as in the bbs,or you could put the bbs copies on as in the cxns

anyway when i get a 3dr someday it will be cxns

 

i have a genuine set for sale soon.

 

that doesnt suprise me dave, is there anything u havent got or had

 

lol.

can imagine you sitting there laughing and shaking your head! lol.

 

i was doing just that

 

i was showed these wheels about 8 weeks back and put it this way Ł500 for new wheels or Ł340 +p.p for my wheels to be re worked its a no branner

 

what are they like close up coley?

 

sorry iv only seen the site of the chap that is bring them in to the uk and a very good mate has rang him about the bolt holes and for about Ł20 more he can get blank wheels and drill the holes to 108mm only on the 8 inch you will have to go 5 stud for 9 inch rears

 

would be interested in the reps personally

 

Dave whats going on mate - i noticed your old 3dr parked in the car park at silverstone with the comps on - do you have that car back or have i missed something????

As for these wheels i would be interested for a number of reasons:

1. you could fit a decent set of brakes behind them without fitting spacers.
2. you wouldn't be afraid to use them on the road
3. the price
4. and you wouldn't have to deal with compomotive

 

Chris,

no mate, not got it back...don't want 2wd cars anymore...not for me.

sold the 500 and thinking about getting another car soon.

i ordered the wheels 6 months ago and there still not here,fookin Compomotive , but now i don't have a car now to put them on.

 

can anyone put a side by side pic up of both wheels so we can see the difference?

 

 

You can get copies of just about everything nowadays....HTN do a copy of my BBS splits...

I'm selling mine after today.............

 

like i said.....all YOUR fault.

 

Why's that Pete???? looked out for that camera on the way home and their was only the one mate

 

they aint to disimilar except in price ,i can see a lot of cxns for sale .

what happened yours today pete?

 

lol....too many cars with them on.

 

They're unreal real for a company that size - Escos then mate, unless your thinking of Jap

 

The stand did have a few sets on it - only one set of originals though

 

up to now a Porsche c4s or turbo then a escos again i think.

 

Dave,

I loved AG's Escos today, fav of the show for me...
