They are aftermarket. I did look at genuine ones but the prices have just gone bonkers and, frankly, the quality is decidedly iffy. These ones also have a higher load rating. Darren

On the assumption you are happy with them, would it be impolite to ask what brand Question

They're the Terrafirma ones, which came up at a very reasonable price from Frogs Island 4x4. Darren

New tyres are now booked in for fitting on Monday and another little piece of the puzzle arrived today, curtesy of Wrington Engineering:

Can anyone give me an indication of the likely cost per wheel of blasting and powder-coating, please? I am weighing up some options for a set of Wolfs I have put aside, but I really don't know the likely cost of a clean-up and refurb.

Many thanks.

I've just paid £300 for powder coating a set of five. They were new wheels though, so didn't need blasting. Darren
