Im looking for the best mailorder or internet place to buy a set of 17" alloys?
Any suggestions?
R-Tec in St.Albans is where I got mine, collected them but they do massive amounts of mail order -- same people as Ripspeed.

I going to be selling the 17's from my Ibiza soon if anyone is interested.
They are 3 months old and have done just over 1500 miles so almost new rubber.
3 are perfect and one has a very small kerb which you dont notice till you wash the wheel :(
Fitted with Yokohama A539 (205 40) tyres

sorry its such a bad pic will get a better picture as soon as it stops pissing down with rain
Paid about £700 for then so would be hoping for around £500 though offers would be considered.

I think they are called AEZ six spokes, though i cant remember exactly.
The look just like Kahn five spokes but with an extra spoke if you know what i mean.
I will hunt out better pictures of them and stick them up in the for sale section.
I need all the money i can get if im to fit 18's on my FTO :D :D
wanting any computer bits? ;)

might help might not ? but we deal with a company in belgium who have done us some realy good deals on wheel packages.
i have just ordered my new wheels at a very good price but they wont b here b4 the track day:(
try www.atb.be only problem is the distance, but good if u like ur booze cruise :D :D
Mark,
I would possibly consider them for around £400. Can you get a better piccy, and one of the scuffed wheel also.
Cheers

try [URL=http://www.wheel-base.co.uk] They are really helpful & a good choice of tyres too.

Gadge~ get a quote, then try calling Iain @ autoimage in Great Western Rd glasgow. I'd be surprised if he can't match price for a wheel & tyre combo once you've added transport costs etc.
Gary try www.potn.co.uk Performance on the Net, they are one of the biggest online dealers and have a very nice site!
Cheers.
