Thanks Adie... they'll need a bit of touching in with the parts that are blistered, but they're still in 95% better condition than my oldies - plus they're 17" driving.gif

Gonna need at least two new tyres - seen the deals with Mytyres in Gold and can get Goodyear F1's for less than £80 each (including delivery) tongue.gif

Waiting now to hear from the seller to see how far he's willing to travel down to deliver them huh.gif, works out to be about 250 miles (500 round trip) ohmy.gif

That'd be great Thom & Steve smile.gif
Still waiting to hear from the seller, he's actually in Sedgefield, Cleveland TS21 2JJ which is a wee bit below Durham.

Will keep you updated as & when I hear from him msn-wink.gif
lexus boy

yup let me know, and plz lets keep the chain up
SteveL
Thom, I'm in York this weekend (obviously a bit short on time to get them by then), and back for w/e of 11 sept
Tony9r
Mmmm... it's been 5 day's since I won the wheels, and I've sent about 6 emails to the seller without any replies crying.gif cry.gif cry.gif
I hope it's 'cos he's just gone away for a while huh.gif
Really want them wheels too... mad.gif
Ahmet
He seems pretty genuine, though not many feedback ratings ..... more from sellers, as apposed to buyers recently ...... hopefully you get them !
Tony9r
Well, I've given up with buying those wheels off matey - still no word from him, and my last mail was returned claiming the address wasn't recognised crying.gif mad.gif , so glad I didn't make a payment !:winky:

BUT... I found another set exactly the same, and they were re-furbed just 2 months ago (not by Lexus) with two almost new tyres fitted... all for the bargain price of £150 hehe.gif hehe.gif hehe.gif
Just fitted them to the car and they look ace driving.gif , gotta sort out some centre caps though blush.gif

Thanks Mike, I can now see that there is a difference in sizes for them - the ones for the GS's have an outer lip, and the ones for the IS's don't msn-wink.gif
