10 Spoke GSi 24V Wheels (facelift GSi)

Brief history - Bought 4 of ^ to stick on a senny - sound but scruffy - usual brake dust caked on and washed last year look with no tyres

Got em refurbed to like new and I mean better than new

Had tyres stuck on them to put on a car and during the balancing process found one was a bit bent.......

Bugger - three wheels isn't a set is it!!!

So ideal as a spare to get rid of that tacky steel wheel in the boot or to replace one thats been horribly kerbed

Was 3 avaliable but one has gone so 2 left

£45 each - I just want to get back the money spent on refurbishment

Hello

I am in need of a wheel since hitting a rock and denting one of mine.
I would consider buying two.
Would you be prepared to post them because I live a long way from you?
Do they have centre caps?
Do you have a photo?

Cheers

No centre caps - already gone - only one left now and I would post if required or if you are anywhere near London I could potentially Deliver - or maybe even use a club postal system to get it to you

Postage will only be max £20 anyway probably closer to a tenner than twenty

Any Good?

Picture as requested



Please note

- does not include centre cap

- This is the bent one and it has one very small chip on the rim edge at 11pm

The others have no marks on them at all

Hi
Thanks for the pic and info.
I havent decided what to do because it is going to work out a bit costly for 1 wheel once postage and a new centre cap are included, I will get a price for the centre cap and decide.
My centre cap came off when I hit the stone and could not be found.

Postage wise where abouts are you?

Centre caps are NLS................. Thats why I sold the set of four from these wheels!!!

Hello again
Im in the Noth East (Co Durham)
The latest is that I was advised to try straightening the wheel as other people didnt think it was bad so I did using a hammer and block of solid nylon packing, it worked well so Im not so desperate now except for a centre cap! But as you say NLS. Thats just my luck. since then the speedo has gone off and the windows only work with the door open and I knocked a piece of skirt off to find that there was no sill underneath.
Lots of work required Sad

I can possibly bring stuff up from Sarf to Norf, or maybe Craig?

Windows problem:
Change your switch banks either side of the handbrake. One is the master, you only need to change that.
I had the same problem, sooner or later, none of your windows will work with the door open or not.

chap, this thread is 5 years old, and the subject you are asking about has nothing to do with the original post. Please post a new question in the appropriate forum.
