Are they all straight (the ones I got weren't) or is some straightening/welding likely?

You won't know if they can be diamond-cut until they're stripped back.
It's for 4. I'll keep the current spare in situ despite being a misfit. Chap said they're all straight. They're the black ones currently on eBay being listed at £770.

Didn't know that about the diamond cutting, presumed it was a finish that could be applied to all wheels.

I've countered the chap with £525. I'm in two minds at the moment. My current 18" Avus need a refurb. They're utterly horrid. A refurb of those is going to cost c.£240. Plus they need new tyres at £400 for some Pzero Rossos. The 20" wheels are looking at c.£900 for the rims all in refurbed plus £750 for the rubber.

Can I really justify the £1k extra for the 20s? Decisions decisions...
