Rico 0 Posted August 29, 2006 A mate of mine was after a set of sebrings and I just happened to have a set spare :roll: So met up with him this morning and swapped them for these... I then got busy with a tin of black paint... Followed by a bit of sanding..... And finally some polishing... Took most of the day to do one wheel but I was taking my time with it and its worth it when you see the difference from how they started out Haven't decided if I'm gonna use them yet but they'll be finished in about a month I'll decide then but I'm quite fond of my current rims :oops: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted August 29, 2006 Been after a set of these for ages! What size are they? Gimme a shout if you don't want them :wink: PS- good work, they're looking 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rico 0 Posted August 29, 2006 Wheels are 16"x7" et 40 Perfect size for the rado in my opinion but could have been a better offset I'll let you know when I'm finished polishing them what I'm gonna do with them mate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigTartanJudge 0 Posted August 29, 2006 They look like Borbet C's off a Vauxhall Vectra IIRC ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rico 0 Posted August 30, 2006 They are borbet c's but not from a vectra! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted August 30, 2006 Cheers mate- they're exactly the size I'm after! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted August 30, 2006 if they're borbet Cs, they're 16x7.5... ;) Number on the rim between the spokes should be C75635 with ET40 punched into the inside of one spoke if they are what you think they are... 8) p.s. if they are, and you have a spare 5th one, wanna sell it to me? ;) :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rico 0 Posted August 30, 2006 Nah I'm sure his will be 7.5 wide but these ones are only 7's. These wheels were also available in 15's as theres a golf near me with them fitted Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rico 0 Posted September 17, 2006 These wheels are defo up for sale, I'll have them ready in about 2 weeks. 2 tyres need replaced so I'll have them removed to make collection/postage easier Looking for £200. Based in the Borders (Scotland!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
