Cheers folks, I'm chuffed with them.
tomtom - I have no idea what tyres they have on... Will have a look and let you know.
aceraf - Yup, 9j all round, I want 7.5's on the front and a certain zoner stoner with a set of 7.5j's all round wants 9's on the rear... you do the math

I did need to use my 5mm spacers on the front.
Dave - polish... my arse.
Cotty - I want the flat centres, and to sort out the 7.5j's for the front as staggered offsets are sexy... once thats all sorted... I may paint them... I may not, you'll have to wait and see.
Once again these are 'temporary' like all my wheels so far, I still want the banded steels but seeing as I got these 'free' then I'm not doing bad.
Old 316 M40 swapped for the black borbet e's (or was it s's).
Knackered borbet e's swapped for the oz superleggeras (which weigh in at 12.5kg per wheel, WITH tyres for anyone interested).
Super leggings being sold for 400.
Borbet a's bought for 350... quids in.
Now all I have to do is sell these for 500 and they'll pay for the banded steels.

No more rubbing... its amazing what you can achieve with a bit of brute force and a lump of metal... might need a bit of hammerite as I kind of cracked the paint a tad,.... but there's no more rubbing

eko/boxclever -
I actually really like them in silver, they offset nicely against the rest. BUT they do need a refurb and I dont fancy trying to polish the dishes so... who knows
ric... already on the case

Looks the nuts. Be interesting to see the 7.5's on the front. Get that sorted and show us again. Much better than the OZ's

Very nice dude. I dont like the centre caps though I think you should get some flat ones. lol

Flat caps look shit, they'll look even worse on your rusty old tech 1 turd. Modern style wheels on an old skool car... tut tut.
