Compomotive CXs - 13"x 6" - SOLD

[dugong]

Here's a set of 4 decent condition Compomotive CX wheels in 13" x 6" flavour, all with their [shockingly not very rare] centre caps.

They're 4 x 108 PCD. I bought them for my 305 but quickly realised the centre bore was too small, pointing to Ford fitment.

Wheels one by one:









I want £150 for these and would prefer pick up from the Stockport area. Payment by Cash on Collection or by Paypal gift.

BUMP

wish I could run 13's on the sierra

Bump.

So no-one wants these then? Why is it that whenever I want to sell anything no-one is interested, eh?

Oh, and to everyone PM'ing me about the centre caps, I'm not splitting them from the wheels. Mainly because that would make the wheels harder to sell and they're not selling as-is.

great wheels and i would have them only your too far away and the postage just adds to the price, they will sell and at that price its a bargain

[welshpug]

just get the centres milled out if the offset is correct, or if its quite deep, some spacers

Not wanting to highjack the thread, but anybody needing centre caps should just contact Compomotive directly - I picked up a set a year or so ago from them. They even give you options for the stickers.

Good luck with the sale chap!

Thanks for the kind words. ;D Where are you anyway? If postage is a problem could the KFW express not help? Let me know where you are (by PM if you want) and I'll put the shout out on the Pony Express thread.

Cheers for the tip, but I need to sell these. Without a really hefty drop these would look odd on the 305, as it runs 14" wheels as standard (rather than the 13"s as I had assumed).

Unfortunately I now need the money. Had my circumstances been better I might have kept these and experimented, but needs must as the devil drives.

So have another bump and a bite of the biscuit marked 'incredulity'. I thought I'd be beating people off with a curse word*y stick to hold on to these wheels, I know they're a very popular fitment on Mk1 and 2 Fiestas.

It seems to go like this whenever I try and sell wheels - unless there's something wrong with how I'm advertising them.

you can buy those center caps from compomotive direct I got my last two sets fir £20 a set so unfortunatly not that rare

Did a smug little smile crack across your face when you discovered that? Well done. Go you. Other people have told me I'm wrong without being so dismissive.

Unfortunately has an 'e' in it. If you're going to pour scorn on something I type, at least have the courtesy to use the correct spelling - otherwise it just looks pathetic.

I was going to amend the advert but now I can't be arsed. I'll sell the wheels with the centre caps regardless. A potential buyer doesn't then have to fart around buying centre caps and can get on with refurbishing the wheels themselves. I still think they're a fair price for what they are. Obviously you don't. Thanks for the input.

I'd never seen as set as old as mine with the all of the caps still present - and judging from the volume of PMs I received not many people were aware of Compomotive Direct either.

Hope you enjoyed your wanky bit of schadenfreude. Tune in next week when in a shock revelation my knowledge of old British alloys is found to be wanting.

I'm stuck for cash at the moment (for reasons I'd rather not go into) and all I get from here load of pedantic horsesh*t or whinging PMs from skinflints wanting stuff for buttons.

F*cking fantastic.

I bought 2 Allycats a couple of months ago and carriage was £7.50 for the pair, so I'd imagine that £15 for 4 wouldn't be too difficult to find - I can't at the moment remember the courier.

[nutter81]

sorry to upset you no offence ment it was just some info in case people who want the centre caps. The wheels them selfs are rare and i think £150 is more than a fair price for them

i guess i could of worded my reply better once again I'm sorry if i have been dismissive

Check parcel2go. I sold some wheels on here a few weeks ago, and sent them for £30 next day with a 3 day available for £25.

Not that dear, really, especially when the wheels are a bargain.

To that end I should probably say that I can pack them up for postage. You would need to arrange the courier yourself though.

Where are you barty?

[dugong]

BUMP. No sensible offer refused.

[dugong]

One more bump and I'm letting this one sink.

SOLD to the short Wirral gentleman over there.
