Wanted - D3 18 inch wheels

x4
Must be 18"
Not fussed about a little curbing but no cracks / buckles or anything else structural.
Any style considered.

Thanks
Dan

why do you want 18" dan
go for these 19"

Hmm.
Wanted 18's as that's what I have now, tyres will fit / swap, ride comfort slightly better than 19's, and rubber cheaper too.

Really want to get my wheels refurbed, but need some to put on while I get them done, and will then keep a summer and a winter pair.

Having said all that I'd consider 19's for my summer wheels I suppose if no 18's turn up.

Dan, do you have a branch of The Wheel Specialist near you? If so they do a same day service and drop you off and collect you from your place of work so minimum inconvenience all round. At least that's what my local branch do.

Good idea, but I usually get my wheels done at a place in Birmingham at only £20 a corner for a full refurb and powdercoat. I will check out that place, but suspect it'll be considerably more! And ideally after a spare set anyway..

City Powder Coaters in Birmingham now also offer same day drive in service, I assume that who you are using.

Oh I see, well at £20 a corner they can't compete (approx £260 for 4 18" wheels) but still considerably cheaper than buying a set of wheels for the purpose of having your others refurbished

Didn't realise CPC did same day now - great, thanks!
