I have 4 factory mags, holding my spares car off the ground. I would
happily swap them for any old junk, which would do the same job. I
suppose Oz is a little far away for most of you.

I also have one supporting the floor in the 8s boot/trunk. Its no
use as a spare, as it won't fit over the brakes at either end. Now
the car is back in full use, I must get serious about replacing that
one.

At least the one in the 7s boot can be used, provided I have some
of the correct wheel nuts with me, [I normally do]. The nuts in
my "Performance" wheels fitted, are not suitable for the factory
wheels.

I agree with the sentiment, but a little sad that the orange crowd now outnumbers the aussies.

BTW, I have only ever seen 1 wedge in Aus that has steel wheels and hub caps. Seems we got alloys on almost all indents.

Consequently I have 3 or 4 sets that I will eventually want to get rid of. Odd, et al, if you are prepared to wait until mid next year (which is approx the point in the schedule where I will be ready) you can have them for the cost of shipping and consideration for my crating time.

Of course, my schedule keeps slipping so it may be later in 08...

- If you hadn't written 'Collection only!' you'd have my interest...
And I'd expected to have them shipped without tyres
- since shipping second hand tyres around the EU borders to the insane in my opinion...
