Default Image Bb5 wheels

Anybody running these wheels?? (Image Bb5)

Seem a more available option than bbs e50's and don't look that dissimilar.

Had a really good quote come back and it's a 9 week wait.

Cheers

I wonder if you have the option of flat caps? They would look better then IMO

I'm sure there was a guy on here rebuilding a saff that had some image splits but had to return one as it's scratched and await a replacement before he could finish the build.....can't find the tread though

Just had a read, looks like he had a bad time with them.

found a few threads about calipers catching the inner wheels and offsets being out.

I think I'll ask for et40 7j x17....on 4x4 that should clear and not hit the standard arch and strutts.
