Not 100% certain but I think these maybe the only place that do sell them.

Click the link, the price is there.
$379 (£230)plus postage and customs charge. I don't reckon you'll have any change out of £300 by the time they reach your door.

I was looking at the wrong wheels...

$379 + $96 shipping = c.£290 + 20% import tax and you're looking closer to £350  :-\

Didn't Vos buy a set, he'd be able to supply a definite answer... give or take the odd cent due to exchange rate fluctuation...

Plus items over £135 are subject to customs excise duty on top  ,,,aswell as 20% VAT

Oh and the £8 charge Parcelforce charge for holding them while you pay the fees  :LolLolLolLol:

Mind you ,you are getting brand new wheels for that ,, not like they are old ones from the eighties  :P     ::)


Great for a re issue Skyway T/A  :4_17_5:

not for the original old 80's T/A that  people don't seem to go for on here    :D

That sounds pretty cheap to me, you must be looking at £800 - £1000 for a good set of the originals  :daumenhoch:
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

From my experience that will buy you a set of Gen 2s, £1200+ for Gen 1s
