Are these aftermarket parts expensive to buy or are we talking pounds/pennies (euros ). Also are they relatively interchangable between the different models or are they car specific?

Prices depend where you get them from.
Some wheels (split rims) I actually make up myself.
Any wheels are interchangeable depending on how much work you are prepared to do.
I just wanted some different versions so away I went.. lol
