banded steel group buy!!!

[euro-vtr]

just sold my lenso rs5 as they came off my other car and didnt fit the saxon, so i want some banded steels how much and were from could do a group buy if people intrested

priced a set up bud, about £550+ atleast tbh mate, you need a set of steelies to start with then badnings around the £340 mark, depending on where you live arrange your own courier to drop them off pick them up £30 each way, they dont shotblast them anymore or smooth the welds out which i personally would want doing, use to charge about £160 for all 4, then once id recieved them back and all prepped I would want them spraying £160. Takes 4 weeks to do, then gotta get them back, they just e-mail you saying there ready to pick up, arrange courier, send them off to be prepped then finished prob about 6 weeks in total.

TBH dude ye i would be intrested if i could get a discount but then if a group buy was organised and alot of people bought a set i doubt id still want mine as much!

just be carefull where you get it done mate. can be amazingly dangerous if done slightly wrong. make sure they supply certifate for road use.
wide-wheels is a highly recommended place.

anyone know of any other places? I know wide-wheels are highly reccomended etc but does anyone know of an alternative? heard about boston engineering but there results where crap, loads of people ive spoke to know a friend who knows a engineering firm thats done it. But knowone can give me a direct answer! At the end of the day if i went to an enineering firm they did them, the welds where good they where balanced and didnt leak air id be happy tbh not really bothered about a certificate, good welds should be just as strong as the material and shouldn't fail. At the end of the day everyones quick to jump on the safety issue of bands but who says anything when you go and get structural welding done, knowone hands out certificates saying there welding will pass a MOT etc!
