Max - these look good on a V8S. Almost as nice a mine

It does sound like a lot in one go, but if you were to buy a set of naff 8-spokes (with centre caps), pay for a good quality diamond cut and lacquer, and then put a set of decent tyres on, you wouldn't be far off what he's asking.
Its you selling them isn't it Joe. Think I'll keep my set, locked away with my indicator lenses.

Painful as it sounds, I tend to agree. Going rate for a single refurbished wheel was about £125-£150 a couple of years ago (without tyre). Refurbs cost about £300-£400 for 4 - Buy some manky 8 spokes now for £75-£100 a pop its getting up to £800 without tyres. Still sounds like a lot of bread though. Decent set of O.z Splits now Around £1000 too though...... So can see why people go for new Lenso's which look good.
Pity Capri RS 8 spokes don't fit....

No But I do know how much it all adds up to from the refurb on my Estorils. It was by no means a top quality powder coat job and, as Phillpot will very quickly point out, I did get them at a very reasonable price in the first place I did fork out for alloy centre caps and specially turned down socket bolts. I took about two years to finally get them on the car and when I added it all up, I got quite a shock.I do like those split-rim look-a-likes, especially on the V8S. Almost worth all that extra polishing.

Estorils are my ideal wheel (as you know Joe) and these aren't a bad price really as they're ready painted with new tyres but I have plenty other things to spend my money on at the moment so these will have to wait.http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/parts-and-p...

And I'm warming to the CHIM wheels on my new purchase - this is a library pic and the paint colour is not my car (disclaimer)
