Would you buy them or better still have you bought any.

I've been thinking about buying some not so sure about the quality :confused:

Can't make my mind up.

nearly bought some, but ended up refurbing wheels instead.

don't think they will be bad quality or they wouldn't sell any... If I remember, Wheelbase had 17" Bullet copies with std tyres for £499... seems good value..;)

Thanks Craig that's what i've been thinking. I saw JCW's on ebay but in 17's which I really fancy these ones. Then buy some centre JCW stickers.

I was considering replica wheels, till the R105's came up secondhand and i knew then, i HAD to have them. :cool:

There's pleny secondhand Mini wheels on Ebay or over on Mini2....Andy's still selling his multispokes too remember. ;) I think they'd suit your car perfectly. :cool:

been keeping an eye on ebay but they all want to much for them and folks just seem to like outbidding each other.

I would actually prefer the Pace Alloys just not sure how much these will be from Mini without the tyres.

I can't help but think that reps might be structurally weaker (ie more prone to buckling on our wonderful roads) than the real mccoy...just my humble tuppence worth ;)

got a price today for OEM wheels.

Bullets £476.01

Pace £621.24

Seems ok price obviously without tyres got no idea if that includes vat

above price includes vat.

Sounds like a good price what do others think about the price for the
Bullets or should they be cheaper.??

I think you should buy our wheels and sell the tyres yourself.;)

Ha Ha. Thanks but no thanks can't afford them sadly,

Busy selling some other stuff myself ;) :D

Price seems OK bearing in mind that they are originals. I just can't get away from the fact that the copies are £20 more for the bullets and that includes normal tyres... :rolleyes: :D

would be tempted by the Pace wheels as I LOVE THEM, but with the tyres added, your looking at approx £900 to £1k :eek: :)

Yeah I know but I do already have tyres.

Looks like my stuff I have for sale is sold:D :D so now I just have to choose

Pace or Bullets plus spots H'mm I'll decide while I'm on holiday.
