I may have to get one for £350 from the dealer, however does anyone have one going spare?

I only need the one 18" alloy as mine has a puncture in it.

Need to know pretty quick please if you have one going, reply to this thread, I will keep my eye on it!

This is what happened to it:

I need one too if anyone has a pair to sell... one for Pagnobito, one for me as my spare is goosed! Previous owner must have kerbed it big time as I have about 8" missing from around the rim an inch deep - surporised the tyre has stayed inflated to be honest!

I have got a brand new LCR alloy which has never been out of it's box if anyones interested.
I'm not that bothered about selling it as I got it with the car from the dealer because one of my wheels had a nasty scrape on it.
I was going to get it put on my car just before I sell it because the sods law says that if I put it on now I'll kerb it and it'll be no better than the one thats on now!

Best offers?

Cheers el-twato! Offer you some dosh and you offer it someone else!

Next.....

This is a public thread in which I invited (sensible) offers.

I was hardly likely to sell it for 300 quid less than a dealer for essentially what was a brand new wheel.

There's cheeky offers and there's silly offers. you won't see many LCR alloys go for less than £100 (and that's cheap) even then they have the odd mark on them.

If you don't ask... you don't get!!!

Plus - this was my starting bid - who knows how much I may have offered!!!

I only want a rim, tyre not required so if there's anyone else wanting to sell, please let me know.

Exactly.

Pagnobito made me a good offer, was able to collect as he is local.

I did ask for BEST OFFERS.

Oh dear, didn't mean to cause offence, however £50 is an insult even as a starting bid.
I do wish you luck in finding an alloy. I was in quite a desperate situation, it wasn't like it was a scuff, just see the picture in my first post.
Simon, it was a pleasure to meet you and thanks for helping out. The tyre was actually ok, and is now fitted to the new rim.
I will delete my first post at some point so any sillyness will go with it.

I wouldn't worry about deleting your post Mike, serves as a good reference for things not to do to your alloys :p

The £50 offer was not even worth commenting on so I ignored it.

Glad your tyre was ok, it would have been a shame to have lost an alloy and a tyre with plenty of life left in it.
When you hand over your keys be sure to tell the new owner about SCN. :clap:

Sorry to cause offence, the name calling was meant to be intended with humour, hence the Spanish-ism and Seats being Spanish (well if you can call them that these days!).

Anyway - would have been polite to say "no thank you" to my offer. I enterpreted it as to be a bargain as you said you weren't bothered about selling it, this seemed as if you were virtually giving it away, you can't blame me for wanting a bargain; anyone would have tried it!

Regardless though - don't want to cause any grief as I am such a new member of this tip top web forum so apologies once more. Hope you don't hold it against me!

El-Cheerso!!

S'ok mate no offence taken.

I meant by not being bothered about selling it that I intended to keep the wheel and I would need a good offer to tempt me to sell.
