I'm after some new alloys as mine are now getting quite corroded and I've been quoted £250 to get them sandblasted and powder coated.

I've found these on online which I really like the look of but they seem a little cheap?

It's for a 2005 STI 5x114.3 (I think).

I've never heard of MAK alloys though and they come from Italy but postage is free.

Not sure if it's a good deal or best to stay away from ebay wheels?

We do 17" at £45 and 18" at £50 a wheel, shot blasted and powder coated whole wheel. In bromsgrove, near Worcester. Pm me if interested

Hmm that was my worry, think I will.

Very kind thank you but quite far away. Will a blast and powder coat stop the corrosion from coming back for a long time?

As long as they do a good job it should last a few years at least.

They sold MAK wheels through the main dealers, so can't see them being crap. I had a set of GTZ from a main dealer and these were really nice

I have been reading up about MAK wheels and they seem to get a very good write up. I think I would get them from a UK dealer though not Italian eBay.

Debating refurbish mine still though.

get them refurbed, its a fraction of the price of any cheap alloys + tyres.
