I'm going to have to put new tyres on the Omega after i've done the wishbones, so thought i'm make the jump to either 16 or 17 inch ones instead of the standard 15's.

I'll most likely be putting part worns on, hence the suggestion for no tyres too.

I'm not massively fussed on design but i like the large rounded spoke 16's like these:

and i like the 17"s from the elite.

I understand these are popular, so i'm not expecting them to just jump out at me lol.
Have found some on fleabay, but were a touch overpriced IMO.
Will continue to look on there, but if anyone has some can you let me know.

Thanks

I have a load of the 16" Elite alloys with at least legal tyres...I have a feeling there are 4 of them but at least 2 spare :y

Got a set here too, I think most OOFERS have a set in the garden shed ;D

The pre-facelift Elite ones are common, but I hope you find some decent part-worns, 225/55x16s are not that abundant.

..... and me!  ;) ;) :y :y

Wow, overwhelming response lol.

I dont know who to go to first, but realistically how much are we talking for a set of these?

thanks

Ok, if you can PM me with some prices please, i will most likely pick the nearest one!
Seeing as they dont seem to fetch a shocking amount those ones.

thanks for all the responses!

Right, seems the ones i bought (ebay) were not as described....so they are gone and i am once again on the hunt.

Again, tyres are not a major issue, but if there are none, i will not pay for than £30 for the 16"s or slightly more for the 17"'s (as these are harder to come by)

thanks in advance for you messages and PM's with prices

Nearer to southwales would be better of course lol.  :y

You'l need to pay a lot more for 17's! Good luck though

Full set of 16inch standard m/facelift Elite Irmscher softstars in my garden.Good condition with center caps.

They have totally shot Pirelli P600,s on but you are more than welcome to them if you are passing Kent.

SWTSMBO would like to see the back of them so they are FOC,but soory they are not just around the corner for you.

Yeah i was aware that the elite 17"'s run a premium, but a full set with tyres has been offered to me at £200...so minus tyres, i still wouldnt pay more than 80-100...but right now thats too much also lol

so i'm talking to the fellow from previous post right now to see if we can sort something
