18x8 Tallydoodah reps, £300 fitted. They are actually lighter than the Monzas.  The only issue is offset/rim width as they stick out a bit at the front.
what offset are they? And where did you buy them!!!, im thinking those instead of BBS VZ's!

Nice wheels. Only £300 for fitting and wheels? Am I wrong?
But sorry Gossa, I prefer my Mona Lisas to your Tallyhoos. But this is my taste.
My favourite are the 19 inchers of Neil and Ess.
Congratulations anyway. :smiley:

42's and got them of a company in Lymington called Reevawheels, they have an ebay shop which is how I found them. The front's do stick out further than I would like though so these will probably stay on until the Monza's are refurbed. I am warming to them though, powdercoated black would be nice!

No that's right, £300 all in. I too prefer the Monzas and as said in that post there ^, I will be putting them back on after a refurb and a new set of Sessanta boots....

I got a mate that will paint them for about £40 a wheel or I can get them powdercoated cheaper but the finish aint as good.

And £300 is about right for chinese reps in 18, they have got 19's as well for £400.

Yes... I really like the look of those on your car.  :smiley: Powder coated black would be better as discussed above. Great wheels for the winter or while the monza's are being refurbed.

I've just had a look on their ebay site and I'm seriously considering a set of those on mine.

Could I be cheeky and ask that you post a pic of the fronts, so I can see the possible offset problem......? or PM me a pic?

Thanks v much
