Other option would be to get the wheels refurbished and sandblasted then spray them yourself.

Could do! but then still have to pay for paint £30-50 and i want a super duper good finish with the lacquer and i have a feeling that is quite hard on spokey wheels :/

160quid with chunky tyres...

Time you have finished them,if you get them powdercoated,they are going to owe you about 450+.

They looked fucking brilliant in the flesh.
I paid £50 for 5, £30 on paint/primer/laquer and £50 for my mate to do them then £120 on rubber.

I got them before they were cool

I know! Well i didnt think they would need refurbing so i was just going to spray them at college and i got my own tyres so not bothered about them! so would of been like a £200 pair of alloys but they seem to racking up the cash!!

What colour of white were they Archie??They look pretty much the same colour as mine(some sort of Ford white iirc).
Done these in my mates garage but didn't bake them.Turned out awesome too.....



And come to think of it,i think i paid 50quid for 5 too with chunky tyres.That was about 2years ago before the scene tax hit them.Got good money for them too when i sold them.

Definitely not as described tbh, they said they were in good "condision", yet the first picture you posted is clearly far worse than the second one on the ad.

Look closer at the top left pic in the ad,can clearly see the rim is scuffed compared to the rest.

Tbh its a dodgy 1,they aren't described as mint,but at the same time,she hasn't said that 1 has some kerbing.

Hmmmm think it would be a case not worth fighting tbh?! unless you lot think i really have a chance of winning? Yer i saw the curbing in the photos but not close up and no description of the curbing so i thought it was light!

You should at least try tbh, don't be the typical British man and roll over They're clearly not in good condition as described. The worst that could happen is you still have them and get them refurbed.

I'd be wanting a partial refund to be honest given that you cant see the kerbs in the pic and they blatantly photographed the best one.
