I merely mentioned the refurb costs in passing, as I would need them done before fitting to a car. I already have a set of Arcadia 17's on the car and a set of mint Craters as spares. Also have my original Stellars, in need of a refurb, for next winter. I like the Telesto alloys, but don't want to shell out a fortune for them. Gary

Oh fair enough, jumped on the defensive as I've had people try to really low ball me like that sorry about that.

I am really surprised they haven't been snapped up yet. I saw Timmytarmac's Telestos sprayed in dark anthracite (I think) and they looked amazing. I saw his Telestos next to my Arcadias and they were equally impressive

They're definitely worth that, if I hadn't of just bought new tyres for my car, I would buy these!
Good luck.

Once upon a time, 5 alloys in decent condition for £65 would have sold in about 3 seconds....

Mine were sold in a day. £200 for four. Not trying to rub salt into a wound, mate! £65 for five IS a bargain. Just had a thought... If people are superstitious, that makes them 'unlucky' £13 each. Maybe make them £64.95, so they are £12.99 each instead. Gary

I am tempted, mainly as they're so cheap, but I just can't get enthusiastic about the Telesto design! Particularly in the standard silver colour. I'm trying to picture them on my car with varying different colours... I would want to get them sprayed/coated, so I can't justify the extra £160-odd cost there just on Gatos' hunch they might look awesome
I have silver Craters which need a refurb anyway so I'm going to have to shell out the £160 no matter what one day If I was TimmyTarmac I would invest in some white-wall tyres for that bad boy.
