Ok, so I asked who had some of these for sale a while back. My daughter changed her mind and kept the original "Cambridge" wheels. We changed the rear shocks last week as the originals had collapesed and noted that the Cambridge wheels are actually square. I guess that it was a combo of no shocks and the pot holes in wiltshire!
So, what do you have for sale?

What make/model car are they for? There are plenty of such wheels available, since a good many hatchbacks use that wheel size, MINI R50s and Fiat Grande Puntos, Vauxhall Corsas, etc. being typical examples... However, you have to watch that the centre bore is correct for your car; for instance, you can't readily fit MINI wheels onto a Grande Punto, without first doing some filing out of the centre bore to fit over the hub, as I discovered in a trial fitting yesterday. This list may be of help: www.carlsalter.com/all-wheel-fitments.html

I’ve just taken mine off my Ignis as I’ve sold the car in standard form. 15x7” Fomb wheels (They were a subsidiary of Mille Miglia in the 80s / 90s) ET28 Powdercoated in black only 6 months / 6000 miles ago and perfect condition. I’m not sure if you can tell in the photos but they have a nice dish on the lip, I’ll wash them and take fresh photos if you’re interested. These photos were before I fitted them but condition is the same, albeit have no tyres on now which saves you time as the tyres would be too chunky for a lupo any way. £200 plus P&P (located in Cannock , Staffordshire if you want to collect to save postage costs)

Sorry @fr€$h&m1nt¥ - I asked the daughter and she wants to keep the wheels as insurance freindly as possible. Thanks bstardchild - Looking good and original VW! Please do dig out when you get a chance. No hurry, but an ideal way to escape the 400th repeat episode of only fools and horses!
