Default 17" Raceline RL7's

After searching for a set of these wheels and having received them back rom refurb only TODAY, Im listing these for sale as my first choice of wheel has become available.

All 4 wheels have been subject to a full dip, strip and refurb, inside and out powder coated twice in anthracite to achieve the finish I wanted. They have then had a final top coat with a hit of glitter which with the sun out as it has a lovely effect! The finish is FAULTLESS, superb!

The wheels are fitted with matching ZZ1's, 215 x 45 x17's making them ideal for Sapphire or Focus. They have chrome valves and caps. Wheels were purchased from a member off here a few weeks ago, are straight with no buckles at all, balancing up with no issues.

They have been trial fitted today to my Series 1 only just to satisfy myself that the expense and effort I went to was worth it....

..... Pics tomorrow, I will let you decide.

Just looking to get my money back on these please @ £650.00

Huw

Grrrrr! You beat me to these from Steve the other day. Problem is it'll now cost me another £250 to have your glitter removed and get them refinished in my colour.

I'd of had these off you immediately if they were the price you paid originally. I just can't justify £900 for a set of wheels.

Appriciated matey, as I said I had all intentions of keeping these because of what they are and getting them refurb'd. Do the math and what I paid and the cost of refurb is what im asking

Check my recent posts, you will see what my first choice of wheel is! Been looking for years for these.

I can understand that Huw. Just my luck that's all. I've been looking for a set of these for years that I could afford and get refurbished in my style. Good luck with the sale though buddy.

Out of curiosity how much did the refurb cost and who refurbed them? I need my rl7's done again as not really happy with the finish they currently have.

This is one of those dilemmas.. I want to, god I want to.. But should I?

They are fucking awesome and would look great on my little fiesta!

Would probably be a waste on there to be fair..

I'm gonna go get my wheels balanced and tracking done. If my wheel is as fucked as I fear it might be.. FFS. Supposed to be saving a deposit for a house!!
