you could buy a set of reps 5X100, ET35 8" x 18" for less than £300 on Ebay

less hassle than a refurb and costly adapters

buying any single wheel on ebay would run the risk of it being a rep/wrong width, ET any way

just my opinion of cource :wink:

LOL  -  He's selling them as genuine Monza II's  :grin:  which are definitley not ET35  :rolleyes: :laugh: :grin:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=220345240820&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:VRI

Believe me if they are genuine they will be ET51, so he's either thick or a liar !! :laugh: :grin:



Ask him to check the back of the wheels again - they do look genuine in the photo

You can then get them refurbed professionally to look something like Greenouses here, or whatever you like  : :wink:



A nice set of custom painted Monzas II's for much less than a £1000

They were the subject of another thread ... not my wheels ... they are Greenouse's

They cost him £100 per corner for a full refurb and paint job etc. at A1 Wheels in Wolverhampton

IMHO they are the nicest Monza II's I have seen  :evil:

Hope Greenouse won't mind me linking another photo  :drool:
