15x6 used ,The guy kept stating he paid $1200 for them. The lips and centers were polished, I blasted everything except the lips, and gave them a Krylon satin black conversion, ready to go.
Here is a pic of the unpolished 5th wheel, you get the idea.

Great wheels. Really like the look.

Especially interesting with the Union Jack. Hopefully your car won't try to fight itself. A true international.

Desecrating a German car by putting Limey wheels on it .... you should be ashamed.

I did try to call you back about your case! Will try to ship it this week.

Minilites =England

I was really hoping you guys might think there was a slight resemblence of these wheels;

I wasn't going to use the silly Brit Flag caps, But my wife ruled that.
I was going to use the old hex fuchs caps from the 80's to try to emulate the 917 wheel.

Ron , Dave was driving through so I thought maybe he could pick it up. no worries, no hurry.


A 205/55x15 not touching with no mods to the body is Special

Well, if you do some minor body work on your teener to make it look like a 917 ... I could accept that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

BTW ... the head studs did not "just screw out easily". Use of the SnapOn Collet Stud puller saved the day ( no worries, no pulled threads)

Wheels look GUD!
