Default 240 steels?

Does anybody have a set of four, with trims and decent tyres, local to me? Thanks.

I've got at least a part set -they're in Northwich. (Not sure if it's 3,4 or 5 units.) Feel free to give me a ring on 0779 506 4077 if they're of interest.

Many thanks Loki and 244T.
Had dilemma wether to replace front Omegas or convert to steels (see wanted ad re alloys). Have decided to stick with Omegas And learn to like rarity factor!
Thanks all for offers of aid.

Hi Loki,

Are these the regular silver 240 steelies with 5 holes like in the image below? What condition are they in?

3 of my wheels are heavily rusted and I was considering stripping them back, treating and repainting but may be easier/ more effective to replace them if I can source some nice ones..

A fine characterful motor. Wish there were a few more saloons on road.
