We used to sell alloys many moons ago but stopped towards the end of the 90s.

We do however have a lot of old stock that has been in storage ever since that needs shifted so I decided enough is enough and got them all lifted out, organised into sets and I'm now in the process of cleaning the dusty ones up.

The only problem with most of the sets is that one would have been on show at one stage while the other 3 were boxed up so some of the sets have one tarnished wheel and 3 perfect ones!

There are some sets that could be fairly saught after for the old school chaps and some not so.

Whatever sells, sells and whatever's left over will be going to T-Met.

They are mostly 13", 14" and 15".
100+, TSW, Alleycat, Compomotive, Wolfrace etc.

Once they're cleaned I will post pics of each individual set with sizes / PCDS / offsets etc.

Here's a few pics to give you an idea:

Alleycat steelies:

Compomotives (for the E30 men!):

XR3is (dusty!):

100+ 3 spokers (would look weak cool on a Corsa hi):

Will add to the thread as I go!

Would buy the job lot if you are sensible.
If he is sensible? Do you assume people are some kind of loony tunes by default? :relieved:

You would certainly qualify.
I warrant 60-70% of the interested comments are full of the bull. When it comes to actually handing out the cash quite often there aint so many willing. Your attempt to put me down by your comment suggests perhaps you are included. My post has no underlying suggestion only offering to cut out the time wasters and generate a deal. I can manage this without the use of smiley faces or roll eyes. If gcon45 is interested he will be in touch, if not I will still sleep soundly.

If those Alleycat steelies are Mini specs, I'd take them.

Wow. Just came home there to find my inbox jammed with PMs about various wheels.

I started the thread to gauge interest and there seems to be plenty so give me a few days and I'll get them all cleaned and get individual pics and specs of each set up.

I'm not ignoring anyone I just don't have time to reply to them all.

@scubbay - When the sought after stuff is gone I'll likely let the remainder go as a job lot.

Cheers!

even at £100-£200 per set your sitting on a nice little earner, I'm sure most should sell.

Anyone know the wheels in the first shot on the bottom left, the 5 spokes? Think I have a set of them

They look very like TSW Stealths
They don't look anything like TSW Stealths, in fact the only resemblance is that they both have 5 spokes.

They are 100+ wheels, i don't think they even had a particular model name, or not one i can remember anyway. They were a kinda budget alloy a long, long time ago although by today's standard probably a decent rim! From way back when putting 17s on your car was considering pretty far out and extreme, and would probably get you a magazine feature for that alone.
