New wheels!

I have just acquired a set of Mark 2 alloys, just got to collect them!
They were a great price and I needed new tyres anyway and these have decent tread. All being well will collect them on Saturday and if the weather is good I will fit them along with the Rover 45 headlights I have tucked away. Anyway, Sunday evening may bring some new pictures for you all!

They have a little bit of damage / wear on the alloys but here are the pictures of the wheels.

That's the only thing I don't like about them, too easily kerbed, still nice rims though.

Collected and fitted today. The tyres even have the little taggy bits from when they are new and some of the colour stipes still running around the tyres.
Very pleased with my bargains!
