[SOLD] Matt Lee 16x8 Mach 5 Steel Wheels - Fresh Refurb.

Since buying this rather nice and increasingly rare set of four Matt Lee 16x8 Mach 5 wheels, I have had a change of heart and am going to stick with my HD (wolf) wheels. They are in excellent condition with no dents or dings/scrapes, but the paintwork is very tired and I am planning to drop them off at the powdercoaters at lunchtime today.

The reason I have chosen to list them here prior to powdercoating is that if there are any interested parties, they can choose the colour if they're quick!! I was planning to have them done in anthracite, so if there are no takers here I will go ahead as planned.

I'm looking for SOLD THANKS

These are now back from the powder coater and look excellent:

Have they had beadlocks fitted or are they just standard?

Would be interested in them as they are!

They are standard, I don't have any photos currently as I was going to wait until they were refinished. They have nothing to hide though apart from tired paint! bear with me and I'll find a photo online of which type they are....

No worries whatsoever. I bought them off Matt at FCX and the picture was taken just after refurbishment. Good luck with the sale.

I've just been over to the powder coaters to collect the wheels, they've done a excellent job.

They look excellent, I'm not surprised you have sold them.

Do you mind me asking how much the cost for the powder coating was?

Thanks. 2015 Defender 90XS HT
