Got my 2 sets of wheels for sale, as I'm not likely to put them on the focus.
First up are my Lasers. In fair condition, might want a refurb, as a couple of them have curbing round the lip, will get some better pics when I've got my other camera and some more time. They're currently Vauxhall "Moonland Grey", and have 1 good T1r, two of the others are bald, and the third one has a bulge in the sidewall.

After £50 for the set.
Also for sale are my Ariannes, ive never had these on the car since buying them over a year ago, could never afford to put tyres on them. These come as a set of 5 wheels, 4 are powder coated white, the other is silver and curbed to f**k. The powder coat is almost perfect, with just one small curb mark on one wheel. I paid £150 for them, would like to make as much of that back as possible, but feel free to make me an offer, worst I can say is no.

I believe so, I have a pair of 20mm spacers that I can throw in with the wheels, no bolts though I'm afraid.

Should only need small spacers on the rear, 5mm I think was on mine.

I was under the impression they needed about 15mm on the back, but could be run without spacing on the front. But as I say, I never got them on the car, so can't say for sure. Pompeymark is the guy to ask I suppose, or Connor.

No they need 11.5mm spacers, no bigger, no smaller otherwise they wont fit. So better off just not buying them tbh

I think people run bigger than necessary for aesthetics though, they don't 'need' to be that big.
Unless your beam's leaning anyway haha.

Lol, yeah but those offers will be quickly shot down. Maybe I should say "All SERIOUS offers considered!"

Not sure about free, but I'm sure we can come to some kind of arrangement. Any idea what postage is likely to cost for a set of the heaviest wheels in the world?

Paisley charge £30.50 for anything up to 17s, plus packaging materials and the effort of wrapping the damn things about £35 - £40, which just isn't worth it on cheap wheels tbh.

Hmm, no not really. That's a bit rubbish.
Although, having said that, as long as no one else beats me to it, i'll have the focus by June, so can bring either set of these wheels to FCS. Maybe even the next Ace meet.

Bump, Ariannes are potentially sold pending payment, any offers on the Lasers? Could be persuaded to meet halfway for collection, as really not worth postage costs.
