Set 17" 5x114?

[Keadeen]

Hi folks,

Does anyone have a set of 17" 5x114 to fit a 2007 Hawk STI in Anthracite / Grey / Silver?

Have a set on the car now, but badly painted gold ones and need to get them powder coated / painted again, which will take a few days and initial prices are coming in quite dear, so might be better to buy a 2nd set in correct colour if available. Might work out bit cheaper, or at least not much dearer and would allow me to have a 2nd set with Winters to make it easy to swap summer/winter shoes.

THANKS!

Have a set here you can borrow for as long as ya need Charles , they are gold but have good tyres so let me know if and when you need em

Wheel wizards are great place to deal with a do a superb job also.

Got my OPC wheels done of them and could not fault them one bit.

They literally give these away on scoobynet - less than £200 will land you a nearly new set - maybe even with tyres

THANKS A MILLION for the offer Tommy - appreciated! (+1 karma).

If I don't find a set to buy permanently (kindda would like a 2nd set for winters anyway) will take you up on the offer.


Brian - good call, will have a look on Scoobynet - though issue might be shipping to get them home.

very reasonable price alright... if only they weren't gold

Don't think the gold goes with the black car and hence got existing alloys powder coated by the seller.
After 2-3 months the paint is coming off and never was powdercoated and in fact only cheap paint job without even preparing the surface (still smooth lacquer and gold)...

So now alloys look minging (see pic below) - hence looking to get them properly coated...

If could get set in grey / silver would keep them for main alloys and put winters on current ones for "rough" use... or get them painted anyway... I'll see.

Thanks for the replies so far guys!

have set of advans avs model 5 here, 18'' thou, be good for winter use i suppose? 8.5j front and 9.5j rear wide ,

Thanks for the offer Pablosd and if they were 17" I'd be interested...

No point running 18" on the military roads I drive every day - tyres and rims would be busted in a week I'm afraid.
Bought an Audi S-line two years ago and had to get set of 17" as 18" it came with didn't work on local roads.
