Not after your wheels, but I have grids without tyres as per the yellow car above if you are interested in buying, I am in Bournemouth,

You could swap your tyres over and keep your apexs if you change your mind or to sell separately,

TSW Big Deeps....

[maxtherotti]

something like that but not so deep

[MangoMan]

I was just wondering as I'm going to get the set of 17's I have on the Avensis re-furbed and fit them on the Rover..... I really like them. Worth a try anyway....

But then I have funny taste - be-heading being one of them....lol....

How about something like this?
One needs a refurb as the Stainless ring has a dent. Can only be done at the supplier in West Bromwich.
Cost £37.50

Here you go, 4 pics of the alloys plus a close-up of the damaged ring.
As it is Stainless, the scratches will clean up but the dent remains.
Ideally needs a new ring. (cheaper than a normal refurb:))

18 J 7.5 - ET45 (or 50 - need to check)

Car has a slightly wider track with these on but fill the arches nicely :)

Not putting back on till March so you got some time to ponder.

ET looks more to be 35, hence the track is slightly wider than on original.

Let me know if you're still interested

Still looking for Apex alloys, so will swap if the right ones come along

[Reebmit]

one of the other members has a stunning set of rims for sale at mo... maybe worth a look, http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=135698

Nice, but a swap with £500 sort of feels like buying :)

My rims are open for a swap against similar condition Apex's

(TBH....the only reason is I want MG originals rather than aftermarket :))

Rob

[VMax1000]

Still don't want mine then?..................

Let me have a chat with your wife :)

Just tell her you can't see the wheels when inside the car ;)

[maxtherotti]

Lol she said no to me very sternly
And she pointed out she looks at the car out of the window more than she drives it:D
