Good price for Mag Marchesini\'s??

How does £460 sound?

I was sorely tempted ...

Pretty good price but they definately need checking out, priming and repainting. Can you see the damage around the edge of the rims?

Yep - thought that they had tyre's changed by an 'enthusiastic' fitter ...

I would have got them painted again

But, they're not mine ...

Yeh - but I wonder if they're really magnesium - tricky to tell with only a quick glance.

They are. The ally ones have a small inset ridge down each leg.

Just be aware that if they need respraying - and they look like they do, that you're looking at a bill of around £160 to spray magnesiums.
