Ok, called the wheel specialist and they are willing to reduce the price to bring things in line with the other company I found (across the road from each other).
They are both really handy as I drive past them everyday on the way to work. Now just got to decide on what colour to go for.
How do you think this type of finsih would look on a gunmetal car?
viewtopic.php?f=61&t=50351 not seen this colour in the flesh but pics look very nice. I wouldn't go with a polished rim (maybe standard chrome or silver)
Other options are anthracite or hyper silver.
any views?

They look awesome, do you think they would suit a gunmetal 350z?

Spotted at around 4:10pm on Aston Expressway heading towards the motorway heading out of Birmingham.
Pulled alongside me and got a thumbs up before turning off onto M6.

Just found this site who have quoted £50 per rim.
Anyone heard of them?

Purchased a set of Rays from a forum member (very good price by the way) and would like to have them refurbed so that I can have them in my colour of choice.
Have done an online quote with the wheel specialists but all in they are looking for £340. Have looked at a few other companies and many seem to offer cheaper but not sure whether the quality would be as good.
Does anyone know of any other companies around Birmingham / West Midlands that offer a good service closer to the £250 mark?

Hi Marzman,
Have sent you a PM.
Got your message but unfortunately, I have plans now. Hopefully Carlton will take the ticket from you.

thanks all, have opted for the Vredstein as it seems they come highly recomended with zed drivers, which is good enough for me, guess if they last 2 yrs like my falkens did then i wont complain especially if they are better only time will tell, not cheap this tyre lark
Where did you find them and how much they going for?
-
Got mine from CS in the end.
-
Without tyres.

I have had a couple of people mention £250, just waiting on further info.
Alex offered £400 for a used set

Hi Neil.
Really depends on condition of the wheels. Had a couple of people contact me but waiting on further info and photo's. Traders have advised £700 ish for a quality set but hoping to get a set all in for around £500 max including refurb if required (which I can get for around £250).
-
Still hoping someone has a set
-
What about Toyo T1-Rs, many seem to rate them

There are a few things:
Add the Mrs as a named driver
Park your car on the street overnight (actually £80 cheaper than in my garage)
Move house to an even better area
Swap your job (or work for an insurance company)
Buy a fiesta 1.2

I understand what you are saying but would rather just make the change and have done with it. Swapping things back and forward to make sure I pass an MOT is just unnecessary hassle IMO.
Ideally would be good to create a few extra bhp but like you say on a NA it is gonna be nowehere near what you are talking, maybe 5 or 6 at best which I doubt I would even notice. If the HFCs are not going to get me through an MOT I will stick with the cats and may get a better Y pipe to get some sound and flow improvements.

If they are willing to cover you and you are happy with the amount then your laughing.

They do look very nice but as I say, not seen that finish in the flesh so don't know whether it will look "too chromey" if you know what I mean. Also would be worried about polished lip as I know some struggle to stop them rusting.
Really like your anthracite wheels but to avoid them being to dark on mine, thought that a lighter silver outer lip would look good also.
