18" Nemesis wheels and BFGs
Looking for peoples opinions on these particular wheels, have done searches here and on the internet but would really appreciate fellow forum members input on these, I have been offered a brand new never been fitted set of 4 complete with the BFG 265 tyres which are also brand new. Price offered to me was £1450.00. Whilst I know the price is reasonable its the wheel quality Id like to know more about. 2015 HT XS 90

I thought they were supposed to have a higher load rating than the sports? 1993 200 Tdi 90 CSW

The Nemesis are Chinese, heard people have issues getting them balanced but also heard other people say they have had no issues with them. Mike

Thanks Mike. The sawtooths can be problamatic to balance but my local tyre company are brilliant so Im confident that could be overcome. Slightly concerned where they are made due to quality or am I worrying over nothing Very Happy 2015 HT XS 90

I've never heard anything bad about them quality wise, balancing issues are usually to do with the tyres, never heard of the actual wheel causing an issue? 1993 200 Tdi 90 CSW

I think there's some for sale on eBay for about 650, you should be able to get new tyres on them for about the same money? 1993 200 Tdi 90 CSW
