OZ Motorsport tarmac wheels, obviously. Need a good refurb, but they're sound and straight, so they're going to end up like the last pic.

Snipe all you want, Mr know it all If i can help members out on here by maybe making a considered choice then i will every time.   


Back on topic liking them Mike, are you going to do them in white.

5x114.3 ET48.

As the face is so thin, the brakes are no problem clearance wise (have offered them up) and there's scope to have them welded and re-drilled if I don't want the wobble bolted... but as I've no issues running wobblers, then I may as well go that route, depending on projected prices.

They'll be white with VWR blue decals.

Love them mate, a classic design.. Should look great!

You going for CW & Smurf blue?

[tony_danza]

Yep, pretty much that exact colour combo, Jonny.

I'm not that fussed what they look like to be fair, they're just going to be track slaggers, but I have a feeling they'll look kinda cool - that'll be a bonus!

[SteveyD]

your crazy mate............... but in a nice and good kind of way,  I dare you to run slicks on them 

I should buy some track slag wheels to save my piscaras

For sure they will look awesome, do you mind saying where you managed to get them from?

They'll look very individual and distinctive, Mike, whether track slappers slags slaggers or not.

Not at all, I spotted an ad on Pistonheads in the Motorsport section. I trawl stuff like that and other motorsport/rally classifieds looking for the odd interesting bargain - sans 'scene tax', as they say... ebay and forums for the most part are a rip off.

I was looking for Jap fit magnesium centered BBS, the Holy Grail of wheels. I know someone that has a few sets, but won't part with them - mainly because I'd just want 4xfronts.

....Personally I don't trust eBay either, but I'm curious why you say that forums for the most part are a rip off.

Those BBS with the gold centres are fabulous!
