    Its worth a phonecall....you never know.

    I like that colour red. I think it's Garnet red, which would make it one of only 4 in that colour I belive, and one of those went overseas.

    They are Inovit RTO wheels,mine are 8.0 x 19 all round. I think they're NLA as the official Inovit website does not list them anymore : http://www.inovit-alloy-wheels.co.uk...amond-cut-face

    Mine have been on for 12 months now and good as new, suppose its how you look after them

    They are the ones! was hoping you would spot this and reply! I know one of the sets I have seen were suffering but not seen your car for awhile so wasn't sure but was hoping they were still ok!

    What size tyres have you on yours lowey?

    I am tempted by some 255 as my avons 225 don't seem to be gripping with the SC.... though switching to toyo might help.

    So yeah if you get it SC'd you might want some new rubber more expense! but worth it!!
