Do some people think they are getting the wider van wheels

Post by leafie »

I have been keeping an eye on these wheels as they are local to me and if they were good value I would have bid on them.
At £141 with a day to go do they reflect the cost of powder coating or is it that people think they are getting the wider van wheels and not seen the note added at the foot of the page?

You could get your own done for less. £20 a wheel in Birmingham.

Nearly 50 pounds a rim seems a lot. I used to struggle selling reconditioned rims for half that at Minor nationals. Gave up in the end as it wasn't worth the faff getting them done...
As Chris Ryder says, get your own done for less.
