Lexus GS300 alloy Refurb project

I thought i would put these up on here before i stick them on Ebay tomorrow as buy it nows!

 

I have these Diamond cut Lexus GS300 alloys for sale, I purchased these with the plan to refurbish them and stick them on my Soarer. Unfortunately the refurbishment company found that one of the rears has a crack in it and a slight buckle, the other rear is structurally perfect. One of the fronts has a slight buckle but the other is again perfect. im selling the fronts together and the rears separate, they owe me alot of money (£560) as i purchased them from a member on here as perfect (apart from the cosmetic damage in the lacquer). These are the Genuine original diamond cut version with the lip around the edge of the rim which helps to protect the Diamond cut finish. I have been as honest as i can with these pictures, also I can include with rear tyres or without.

 

Good 10" Rear - £225 With tyre and centre cap

Thanks Graham, its definatly worth looking into! I was under the impression Lexus didn't have any anymore aswell, I only know what I've read on here though! I would have loved these on my car ever since I saw a picture of Michaels supra with a set of these on, looks just incredible in a perfect factory finish!

The guy that sold them to me has turned out to be a conman from another forum and it turns out he owes people thousands! I have tried to contact him, at first I wasn't after all my money back as I believed he was unaware, but after a reply of 'ill think on what I will do' I've heard nothing since! I collected the wheels in person and paid cash, I looked at the wheels and altho they were filthy they seemed visably ok and as described so we done the deal, you live and learn!

 

I sent these to Ibrar to be refurbished and it was there they were diagnosed to be in this condition, the good rear and good front can be refurbished back to diamond cut no problem, I sent them for a simple refurbish and didn't want a repaired wheel.

 

I'm just giving other people a chance of maybe completing a damaged set they have and trying to get some money back on what I've lost!

If it helps, I did a job for a bloke with a Lexus. Don't know if it's well known, but if you take the wheels into a Lexus dealership they will exchange them for a new set for a small fee. I think he said about £80 a wheel.

 

I spoke with the local Lexus dealer re. this and they informed me that this 'deal' was only for the Lexus 5 spoke and for corroded wheels only.

 

They also asked me to post this info as they were getting numerous enquiries.
