I was having a browse on ebay and saw these wheels about to end. They looked really cheap, were local to me and I know that tomolins are a good wheel choice so I took a punt. I could see from the stamped markings that the offset is right. Have I bought a bargain or are they not what I thought they were??
Are these tomolins??

You will need spacers with them as the ET is 37, or so I believe?

They are knowns as tollimans....and they are them.
About the easiest of non original alloys to fit...so they say
Lots of people have them on here.
I think you can get away with no spacers.....but i fitted 10 mm ones to help to get the caps back on

These look a bit too far gone to be polished. I might see if I can get them sand blasted and powder coated.
