There used to be a guy who sold them on eBay but he doesn't seem to be on there now, there is these but don't know how many he is selling......

I tried grinding some out and got a mate to reweld them and ended up in a disaster too!

Are Rays £35 each? Or is that per set? The chap on ebay was selling them for about £50 per set if remember correctly.

Anyway the chap i mentioned earlier has replied and has confirmed it's a set of 4. Finishes soon though.

Just noticed where you are Gate78 possibly a bit far for you to travel! If you do want them though just bid and i'll collect, only down the road for me, we can sort out a courier after.

you could always try the LWB Grand Vitara route these have a good offset and you should be able to get a set for aorung the £50 mark.....

Ray's are £35 each, because he makes them himself out of original wheels, I think the price is exchange too. He has some nice bits and pieces down there, but he's a long way away from you (and me for that matter). Knowledgable bloke though and friendly. Oh yeah, he doesn't take credit cards either, probably a good thing for me!

Standard SJ rims that have had the offset adjusted will still only be 5.5 inches wide :(

Go to http://www.bronco4x4.com/ and get a set of 7" wide rims, the offset will be good and you can then fit bigger rubber :)

At about £28 each they're cheaper too  :D
