Default URGENT need a single 17" Thor wheel.

Found today one of mine has clobbered a pot hole and is split. Condition of wanted wheel not really important as the whole set will be refurbed together. So long as it is circular and not cracked!!

Thanks.

Stu

Thanks for the heads up. I had considered his part ex deal but didnt think he would take my set with one cracked rim. I will ring him tomorrow.

Thanks again.

Blasted thing. Didnt notice when I bought last week. Damage on inside and it drives fine with no vibration whatsoever.

Phoned him. They are moving premises and have everything currently in storage. He says it will be the new year before they are up and running again. Thanks again for the suggestion though.

Random question to throw into this thread (sorry) but If I had a spare single Thor (I do not), would it fit in the boot where the space saver is, or is the whole point that the spacesaver is smaller than the main wheel a so fullsize spare wouldn't fit?

Sorry if this seems obvious, but my last few car's spares have been fullsized, and the wheel well in the boot of the S60 does look like it's take a larger wheel.

I have a 17" Amalthea Volvo Alloy Wheel which I bought as a full sized spare when I had a V70, it fitted in the spare wheel well, but had to remove the under floor tray and maybe the form blocks in the well to fit it in, but it did fit.

I still have the Alloy in the shed, its band new with new tyre...maybe I should sell it....

Thank you, but no. I went for a set of Tethys in the end. Got 3 Thors to get rid of now, instead of wanting just 1!!
