Can anyone help?

The Missus had a nasty pothole incident last week and trashed 2 of our wheels frown

I'm looking to get hold 2 replacements, or a complete new set of 4 - so we have 2 spare ready for the next time she trashes them!

Thanks in advance
Ian

Are these the ones with the fake plastic studs in each spoke.

If so I think I may have a set kicking about somewhere.

Ill take a look tomorrow.

Just had another look and the studs definitely aren't plastic - rock solid metal! The only difference I can tell between these and the genuine Overfinches is the lack of 'overfinch' imprinted on one spoke.

Sorry, seems mine are genuine ones, as the stud is 100% plastic.

sorry, worth a look.

I have a set of these in Black 22"- bought new for wifes car from Overfinch last year with TYRES - got about 5000 miles on them - but sold car and took these off. Sitting in garage . Lots of tread on tyres. Don't know if thats what you are looking for? (these arent mine BTW - ours are in perfect order)

IIRC Overfinch are rather cross about the replicas, precisely because the replicas seem to have a habit of breaking when they meet potholes.

Replicas won't turn up on eBay or, if they do, they're likely to get pulled after a nudge from Overfinch.
