Depends how cheap you think cheap is. I bought 4 16" astra sxi alloys, all with p6000 on, 3 with v.good tread - 1 needs replacing, for £250, then another alloy (4 a spare), no tyre for £50, but i have to change all the tyres soon because the profile is to high. So that'll be another 200/300!

And that without the cost of having them balanced before they were fitted!

So, at first i thought "£250? BARGAIN!" - now i'm thinking "Could've bought some Lenso RS5's with the right tyres for the money it will have cost me in the end!"

But then i should've asked about the tyres before i bought them, just didn't think!

.......but yeah - ebay's good.

South Coast Wheels might be able to find something for you aswell, they have a book with contact for some 2nd hand stuff, i think.

There's silverlake on Onslow road too, they've alway got alloys in the window.

Other than that theres:
