Just wondered what a fair price for a set of 4 c5 steels would be? I've seen a set for 120 quid and another set for 140 quid? Thoughts people?Cheers

Yeah if folk know what they r and why u r buying them they'll rip u off. I've seen painted ones for £200+ it's a joke! As above post says search scrappies and you'll find a set for peanuts. I got sum brand new never been used gloss black steelies for £80!

You're on about the light alloy C5's? Rather than conventional steel wheels?________________________________________ Red Rallye - Rolling "restoration"Wishbone Polybushes available |

Yes.Identifiable by 16 holes and being thick alloy and weighing F all when you lift one. They did 2 types. Early ones had issues with the bolt holes being weak. There are differing serial numbers. They use a tapered bolt with a spinning washer, so it's worth remembering to pick them up at the yard to save sourcing some. ________________________________________  |

Northumberland and Co. Durham roads killed my C5's.... they're probably far better suited to track or tyres with a healthy side wall________________________________________ Red Rallye - Rolling "restoration"Wishbone Polybushes available |

I've just tried to knock mine back into shape for winter... all four are scrap, effectively. I'll put money on them lasting a few months with 50 profiles... might do better with 55's________________________________________ Red Rallye - Rolling "restoration"Wishbone Polybushes available |

Well once I've bought some tyres and fitted the wheels in the new year and done some mileage I will report back. If Welshys have lasted that long and the roads in Wales are cap lol surely mine should last a little longer |

Some of them aren't the best but I tend not to drive through potholes or over kerbs blindly tbh so any wheel will last fine.I've run 195 50 michelins on all my sets, PE2's and Alpin A3's. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
