haha are you copying me? i had a set of TH Mono's in 15x8 with tyres I got for soooo cheap, me and mate went halves, had them for 20hours before they sold, with a profit of £120 each :p

lovely wheels, but they don't make 16's no more do they?

them steels are cool, but people sell them for stupid amount on ed38, as they "have to get the centre bore made bigger to 57.1" WHO CARES! it doesn't cost much to do that, then they wack on a £500 price tage for STEELIES lmao

would look awesome banded though!

yeah, fetch loads, as they are not in production any more

not too sure will, drop him a PM asking if they have 57.1 centrebore, if not then you will have to get it machined up (if smaller) or use spigot rings (if bigger) (www.customspigotrings.co.uk £20 :))

just double check mate, what width are they? what offset? and PM me if you want to get them banded, i will point you in the right direction :p)

plastic is ok, as they use quite strong stuff tbh, that is cool, learn something new everyday :) (never had to use spigots)

and probably won't for a while, love my RM's too much, gonna wack out the autosol tomorrow to get the wheels clean for the Ace Cafe Megameet on monday, anyone can come (well if your dubbing :p)? gonna be EPIC!

PM'd back, tbh you would want max of 8J

8J = ET23 (with 1.5" lip, well slightly more)
7.5J = ET29 (with 1" lip, slightly more too)

You turn the collar! It may have a little grub screw on, which will need something like a 1.5 or 2mm allen key for, to secure the spring platform, this will need loosening before you start turning the collar
