I have decided to run 16's instead of 17's so these are up for sale.I have shot blasted the wheels and professionally resprayed them, they were rubbed down after blasting then given a coat of etch primer, followed by a coat of 2k primer, then metallic silver basecoat followed by a coat of black diamond metal flake just to give them a slight hint of grey and a nice metallic shine, then topped off with 2k laquer.
They have vertually new 215/40-17 bridgestone potenzas fitted, all with approx 7.7mm tread.
The wheels are et25 but I have bought a brand new set of 8mm hubcentric spacers for them taking them to et17, these are 73.1 -65.1 center bore spacers so you do not have to use the plastic spigot rings on the wheels, they will be a direct fit, they are a nice bit of kit and very light too, around 250g each, cost me a fair few quid! I also have the correct length tuner wheel bolts, again brand new.
I will also include a set of spigot rings in case the spacers are not needed, I only have 1 pic of the wheels atm so will grab a few more tomorrow.
The only bad point is that 2 of the wheels have some kerbing, I must add that this was there prior to the respray and the wheels have not been fitted since, curbing is not something I do as I'm a sprayer by trade and not a wheel refurbished so I didn't bother with it.
They do look great and I am really pleased with the colour, I just think I would rather run 16's.
Looking for £500 and im located in Boughton Nottinghamshire ng22 9ld, I could bring them home with me if needed to Ilkeston DE7 5PE.
