18" Alloy Wheels

Post by Timmyboybunter » Mon Jun 10, 2019 1:57 pm

Ok, so the rears on my 107's are terminal :(

So, I'm either looking for a pair of rear 107's (the elipsoids), or ideally a full set of 18" wheels and non run-flat tyres.

I'm picky about wheel design (and no black ones please) but let me know what you have available? I've scanned the classifieds and there's nothing really suitable at the moment.

I'm sure, I have a set of 18", Style 189's - split offsets..
All boxed up and ready to go - collection preferred, or courier at your costs / arrangement, etc..

They were fully refurbished - (Acid stripped; shot blasted and prepped, prior to being Powder Coated), Bronze Metallic - a good few months back..

NO tyres, have been fitted, since they were refurbished..

If of interest, let me know please?
Looking for circa £375.00p, collected - or you may arrange your own courier, if required..

Cheers, Paul..

Interesting Paul, a subtle bronze colour would probably work nicely with sterling grey.

Just how 'bronze' are they? Picture would be great if you have one available.

I have a set of 202s that I’m willing to let go. Could do with a refurb as some curbing and paint peel. Otherwise are nice and straight. New PS4s on the fronts. Budget set on rears.

Sounds promising as I'd miss my 107s, though I'm rarely over that part of the world - are they straight as in no previous welds etc. and how much are you looking for? Cheers.

Likewise, if the 202s dont go let me know a price, ideally after 107s but 202s would fit the bill!

Hi OP, I have a set of freshly refurb'd MV2 (135) style wheels available in OEM silver if interested; however they are replicas, a square set up (8j all around) and no tyres, although presumably you'd be able to swap over your existing tyres.

Thanks for the offer, but I'll pass on these.

Update: had a quick chat with Nick, wheels look great (awesome in fact) but the dates don't work, so someone else may be lucky here :D

Alan (No 5) is local to me and has some options available which may pan out.

So interested to hear if any others around. Realistically now some time has passed and I now have a car sitting on the driveway I can't drive :headbang: I'm either looking for a scruffy cheap set (any size that will fit my standard brakes) to tide me over which either come with tyres or are compatible with the tyres I have fitted to my 107's, or a keeper set which doesn't need a refurb (but no black, MV1s, 108s or reps).

Said I was picky. Thanks for the replies so far.

Hi Paul, can you PM some pics of the 189's?
2004 E85 Stirling Grey 2.5L.
Very much original spec apart from roof motor relocation and non run flats.
Not too mechanical savvy so just enjoying the experience.
