Early 16v rims, they are a nice simple wheel to refurb so wouldnt be paying to much to get them done £25-£30 max per wheel, personally i do my own as im a tight ar$e  :laugh:

i paid  £65 per wheel for my split rims & they was farked!! As you know bbs rx2's corroded like a cun7! I got them powder coated & the bolts have been polished. Theres a place in bordesley green in bham called sweeney sherlock & i think they charge £25-£35 per wheel.

Thats exactly what i was thinkin really.Might hold off and get them done cheaper elsewhere as there not a particularly special set of rims anyways.

barry: how comes you got them done it silver? Should have went for a diffrent colour?
Did you want to keep it looking original? (you got an anniversary)
