Finally found the wheels I want!! there made by RH Alurad and called Maxlite. I've seen there was a group buy for these wheels a while back, I'm after the 17x7, anyone have pictures of these on the 7x17 rims? I'm sure all the pics I've seen are fron 17x8 rims as there is quite a lot of rim showing past the edge of the tyre wall.

Anyone know who can suppy them i the U.K? I've tried the 2 compny's listed in a previous post re. these wheels but no joy.

Any help on the topic is much appreciated.

Hi Dazz

Did you ever come right with the Maxlite, I'm also frantically looking?

Cheers,

Thanks for all the assistance, would you suggest looking an posting something on eBay? such a pity these rims are now out of production.

Quich question: is there any large used alloy wheel distributor in the USA or UK that I could possibly contact!!

Cheers, have a great week...
