If you still had them I would bite your arm off mate, been flicking throught he forums and ebay to see if there are any decent priced wheels and tires going local........nothing! Going to get a second opinion on this repair in abit.
shame your nowhere near the Hagley Rd.. you could have poppped in and seen the lad who I always go to
RUST!!! 
What I thought to be a small hole ended up as quite alot of rotted metal, just hoping this is easily repairable. Im hoping I have gotten rid of the worst, just need to get a wire wheel so I can attack the surrounding area and give it all a good clean.

One of the coilover collars is seized 
Near side front wont budge, bodies perfectly clean (Stainless) and the collar look to be in good nick so I cant understand it. Can I use a blow torch on it to heat it up or will I do damage to the damper internals? Last resort is to cut the collar off and get a knew one from FK.
Although the suspension is **** arsed and its running a space saver I took it for a spin around the estate, loves it

you call that rust! haha have a look at my caddy thread! haha, naah that shouldt be anything to worry about,
Rust brought the end to my first car so it upsets me 
I have been thinking about buying a mig welder and doing a course so I can repair it myself, im sure it could come in handy and pay it self off come cage and seat installation time.

Have you tried checking the ED38 classified forum ? There are some quite reasonably priced wheels that sell on there. I have been keeping an eye out but, they are never the right soze for my car
Dont remind me
Fancy a set of RA's like yours if I can get some reasonable, must be decent on the weight front?

I took one of mine off yesterday to try one of my new wides on.. the wide weighed more than the Ra and has no tyre on!
If you are still looking for some wheels, I know of a standard set of cupra 15" wheels with tyres for £60
Let me know if you interested pm
