It looks like I'll be selling the set of 5x Volans 17in alloys as currently fitted on my 850R. These are genuine Volvo wheels and are fitted with almost new Kuhmo 215/45x17 tyres. Unfortunately, I ran over a load of nails recently and am working on a wheel & tyre deal, so if this goes through the Volans will be available. The wheels are in pretty good overall condition. All have minor kerbing scrapes along the rim edge, some (limited) lifting paint, and one has signs of minor corrosion near the valve. All are DIY repairable if you have the time and ability to remove the tyres. The tyres are also pluggable as there is no sidewall damage. I think 2 tyres have 3 nails and 1 tyre has 4 nails, I haven't found any nails on the 4th... yet. Remember apart from the nails, these are nigh on perfect. Only one tyre is leaking air and is losing about 5psi per week. If anyone is interested, drop me a PM - I have no idea of prices, but I know these are quite rare. I'm looking for £300 for the set of 5 including the tyres. They're in Doncaster and will require collection, but won't be available until I have the new wheels sorted, probably in 2-3 weeks. The piccy below is typical - I can email pics of all 5 wheels if required.

All the best with the sale but I think youre only allowed a max of two repairs per tyre to be legal

Thanks for that - I wasn't aware. I'm only including the tyres as I can't remove them myself - no tools for that. I'll let any potential buyer know though. Cheers.
