[Big dog]

No not yet , still wondering if it will be worth it or not , they are £120 for all 4 , then £85 courier costs then I need to get them refurbished , but I think they would look good on my 3rd gen surf

have a look through the "Pictogram autopartscollector" pages, some mouth watering rims there, still not seen any the same as mine though, a couple very similar, makes the stuff they sell here look cr@p

Raguna ZZYZX, aftermarket, and originally fitted to a Pajero.





Since refurbed.. new centre caps from Raguna in japan, centre part finished in Audi Grey, outers in solver, all with a satin finish, and shod in 285/75/16 BFGoodrich AT's.

Took me ages to find a matching set of 5, but they look great.

What makes you say that?

If they are three piece splits you can get sealing problems, two piece its just more labour.

A lot of wheel refurb companies won't touch split rims, I had issues finding one.

In the end I was recommended someone by Lepsons and he was useless. I could have done a better job myself.. especially at 160 a wheel! (He reused the valves FFS!!!)

Well I found it much easier to refurb mine being 3 piece split rims, meant I could clean, strip off old coating and polish without effing about round bolts or studs, as for leaks on the joints I had no problems whatsoever, it aint rocket science, long as the mating surfaces are nice and clean and you use a good grade sealant, AND you take care fitting them together and tighten up the bolts evenly, (take em down slowly a bit at a time working round), I had all sorts of crazy prices for "doing them up" had one place say they use a "special formula " sealant and would not divulge what it was or who made it, bollock$
sealant I used was off the shelf, forget the brand
best thing is to look online for automotive grade sealants, We used sealant made by Bostic at the coachbuilders I worked for, trouble is I wasn't working there when I got the surf
