Is this not a great deal?

You'd usually be lucky to get 4 budget tyres for £180!

I'd like to check how heavy those alloys really are - and the tyres are hobson's, (prob. not very good) choice.

But if you don't care about such things, (many peeps don't) then you can't complain at that price.

So bravo's are 4x100 bcd? i always thought they were 4x98? and isn't the offset et40?

the bravs are 4x98 but with a set of "wobbley bolts" they will fit a treat

 

[William Lane]

What are wobbly bolts? and where would i get these?

halfords sold me wobbly bolts when i got my wheels! they had to order them in which took a few days but they did sell them to me.
think your halfords must be 1 of those "rare" halfords occurances where they're not helpful!!!

Don't forget the wheels will need the correct centre bore adapter.
