Hi
could you give an idea of depths in MM. Any uneven wear? what sort of condition are the wheels actually in? any bad scrapes?

waiting on the tread depth!
Are the alloys gold 'sprayed' or actual gold alloy i.e. does it still show gold where the scrapes are?

They are proper gold and when I've seen them they look fine. Graham can only get on here at night so I'm sure he'll update it later on today
Cheers

I'll second Jawa's comments - the wheels do look good.
I'm sure G will be on here from around 6ish, as it is a Friday and he will probably knock off work early!

G When do your new ones turn up?
You could always hold on to your wheels a little longer, as £150 is a giveaway in my eyes. Especially when two of us have recently sold our original 16s for more than this!

On Tuesday Scott! will wack um on wednesday night just in time for the Crispin and Sussex meets. Not pushed to sell the 16s just need the space and feel that £150 is a fair price. G.

Graham it seems the initial interest has disappeared for some reason?
Maybe they do not have access to a PC during the weekend?
Either way, I'd give it a day or so, and then hold on to them for a bit.
I'll have to check out the wheels at the Sussex meet.
