Cheers

Sorry, funny mood tonight!  They do look a bit similar to Andy P\'s though if thats a help.

They look like Buddy Club wheels to me.

Not P1 but the Budget version.

look fit for the bin, you can see where they are not made for the car, and have been drilled with new holes for fixing. Might be worth £5 scrap.

scary :eek:

I went to have a look at a R32 GTR last year that had just arrived from Japan and the same thing had been done to the alloys on that car.

The dealer said "no problem" but I didn\'t even want to test drive it in that state.

I have never really looked at the wheel to tell you the truth.  After Gary\'s (blunt) post i drove to my parents where the car is and had a good look.....they are terrible! gary was right in the fact they are scrap....i could not sell these to anyone, to dangerous!  only good thing though is i have looked at all the tyres and they have loads of tread left, so i may get some money for them i guess....I plan to 18" or 19" in the next 6months.

Thanks gary for spotting that. :)

Cheers

Am I being a bit naive or are the pictures just of wheels that are multi fit ie allow fitment to cars with differing pcd\'s? I\'m sure I\'ve seen new ones for sale down places like Halfords and accessory shops that are drilled in a similar fashion.

Sorry mate, not trying to be blunt, just my wording I guess.

If you look at the spacing of the holes, tom they are not even, uni ones would have an even amount of ali between holes for max strength, holes drilled to close to another could be dangerous, halfords may get away with it on there regular clients (novas etc) but not on something as powerfull as a RX.
