Hi guys

I'm after a set to buy/rent/borrow to allow me to roll around whilst I have my set refurbed.

Thanks

Im 90% sure C70 T5's were available with 16' alloys, the calipers are the same size just the discs are bigger so should fit, anyone know for definate?

I'm not sure. The Perfo's are the originals from my V70 1999 T5 SE if thats any help. Not sure what size the disks are.

They should fit then as the calipers are the same, just because the discs are larger it doesnt alter the position of the calipers so should fit.

Chris, do you know of any good wheel refurb people in your area ?

If you are willing, I could come down to Portsmouth, swap the wheels, then have them refurbed up your end ?

Just an idea !

I will look into it and let you know. I'm not aware of any but thats only because I haven't had any wheels refurbished down here.

A collegue at work recommended these guys: http://www.spitandpolish.co.uk , he took his cossie in with a set of new tyres in the back, dropped the car off in the morning and collected it in the evening. Wheels blasted, prepped, powder coated, tyres fitted, wheels back on the car, ready to drive away - all in the same day!

Might be worth a look?

I had my wheels refurbed on my Starion a few years ago there was a place just outside/north of Romsey,But you had to leave the wheels with them for a week,

Can't remember the name though sorry.
