I would contact the guys from http://www.ccwheel.com and ask for the configuration you want

including prices, and off course if they will ship towards the UK,

check their website and click gallary you will see pics enough of ccw ''classics'',

Good choice those classics,

Yes I got them direct from CCW, all their wheels are a special order made exactly to the size you want and I run UK size brakes with no issues. If you do want to buy direct there is 1) shipping costs and 2) import duty and VAT to consider, neither of which are cheap :( You also need to bear in mind they're a bitch to clean and unless you keep on top of things they may well need a professional clean/refurb every couple of years, although I must say Ibrar did an amazing job last time round. He is the only person I could find in the UK who could take care of em as they're 3 piece split rims and most wheel refurb guys can't handle 3 piece. I still love them but might give them up just to keep things spicy as I have had em for a few years now.

How much would you sell them for?

As Jamie's already mentioned, bare polished aluminium requires high maintenance especially winter time. You can apply waxes and sealants which help but any lapse in cleaning will see them corroded in no time. :blink:

 

Here's a picture of Gerald's CCW's I refurbished in Satin Silver with polished lip.

Consider a straight swap for a genuine set of 18" BBS LMs in gunmetal? Not sure if I want rid, but I do like classics :cool:
