**FOR SALE**4 PRODRIVE Gold Magnesium Alloys
Advertising these for a mate ! Tried to put them on Car parts & Accs.for sale section but wont let me : ( ???? !!!!
Heres the Description.
4 PRODRIVE MAGNESIUM alloys
Ultra-lightweight and super strong
Shod with 225/35/ZR18s 2 Eagle F1`s and 2 Falcons, all with good tread.
12 months old, cost £1200 new without tyres! £1800 with!!
Correct offset for Impreza
Will fit all classic and most new shape imprezas (any without Brembo brakes)
Very similar to 22b alloys but lighter and stronger and 18 inch, not 17 inch.
Not a single scuff or kerb mark
These are the real deal, magnesium-super lightweight (see below text, borrowed from a website) totally transforms the looks and handling of the car, goes round corners like a go-kart,
Wheels of Fortune
Often I get customers inquiring, "Do you keep alloy wheels?" What they generally mean or refer to are 'cast light-alloy wheels'. No doubt alloys have great advantages over pressed steel wheels or wire-spoke ones but most alloys are bought or fitted simply to impress the neighbours. There are two types of alloy wheels available, one the more common aluminium alloy, and the other is expensive magnesium alloy wheel.
A typical aluminium alloy has a density of about one-third that of steel. Cast magnesium alloys are even lighter, having a density slightly less than one-quarter that of steel. A cast magnesium alloy rim gives greater improvement in the specific strength over typical steel pressed rim when considering the tensile strength per unit density, yet weighs considerably less. For example a wheel of size 5.5X13, a popular size used for rally cars would weigh around 4.2kg as against 6.0 to 6.7kg for the same size pressed steel wheel.

I am selling the car so these wheels have got to go, I am looking for £750 for these wheels, which is less than half price, be the envy of your subaru buddies! Grab a bargain.
