    I bought the new wheels off ebay a couple off weeks ago they were in a bit off a state but had decent tyres and where local the bloke i bought them off didnt know what make they were and neither did i but liked the style thought they were similer to turini, so bought them and had them powder coated in anthricite grey, they have turned out to be a bit darker than i thought they would to be honest but am gettin used to them i think its difficult when the cyclones still look so good to. I have since been informed by freinds they are old team dynamics qualifier wheels.
