Could I ask for 2nd dibs on these please Paul if CrispyEdd doesn't take them?Hi edd I have a set of same £50 the 4 off ...not good wheels as in scratched scuffed .but 3 good Quality tires And 3/4 of the tread left and three straight rims...

Oh no! - Do you need all four Neil?Could I ask for 2nd dibs on these please Paul if CrispyEdd doesn't take them?
I don't know if you remember but we spoke about them some months ago but you decided to hold on to them at the time.
Cheers,
Neil ?
No problem at all Ed. I actually just need two perfectly round one's, condition pretty unimportant otherwise as they will be fully refinished but they need to be round ??Oh no! - Do you need all four Neil?
I only need one to be honest so if there 3 good ones it's all okay isn't it then?No problem at all Ed. I actually just need two perfectly round one's, condition pretty unimportant otherwise as they will be fully refinished but they need to be round ??
Hi Neil I think you decided against them from memory as I couldn’t guarantee how perfect they were they do need Refurb ..I don’t want to make this complicated Or contentious.. I have offered them to edd for a gift of a price which will pay for one tire I’m not making money.. Far from it if Edd wants to do a deal with you that’s entirely up to edd .. But my deal with him stands .. I’m just clearing a few things out that I’m not going to use..and just doing a favour from someone local .Could I ask for 2nd dibs on these please Paul if CrispyEdd doesn't take them?

Hi Paul, that's fine. I was just requesting 2nd dibs if CrispyEdd didn't take them, nothing more?Hi Neil I think you decided against them from memory as I couldn’t guarantee how perfect they were they do need Refurb ..I don’t want to make this complicated Or contentious..

This isn’t just linked to the comment above…but I don’t understand the massive dislike for pressed items? Maybe I am naive/misguided/not particularly mechanically minded but my pressed ones lasted 18 years and 138,000 miles and I replaced with pressed items because that’s what it came with and because they lasted EIGHTEEN years and 138,000 miles…You gotta love the ‘improved’ pressed metal wishbones haven’t you
Cast ones for me every time

I do the same and still, when I have removed the plastic undertray to clean it, there was a lot of gung, sand, dirt, etc. behind the plastic undertray...When I wash the A2 I usually get the spray jet under the car and try to wash off salt but there must be nooks and cranies where the jet does not reach.
My pleasure edd ...really nice to meet you to .?Picked up spare alloys from Paul @greywolfhound . What a lovely chap very skilled engineer with the best workshop I've ever seen!! Thanks to Paul and the great spirit of this forums members, I know have a smooth running set of wheels for an incredible price. Brilliant Paul! Thank you so much. Good luck with bmw bike restorations too. Works of art.
