Hey bob

120.73 before vat about £5 cheaper than ZU's. But presumably easier to upgrade to bead lockers than other wheels. To put it perspective 3 wheels is the same cost as 1 beadlocker kit Evil or Very Mad 59 2.4 110 XS Utility

Thanks Cibit.

They do look good and I like the idea of the 20mm offset as opposed to the 11mm of the Zu's.

Could you post some pics of yours when they are fitted ?

If I can so bold - how much are the Terrafirma wheels ?

I could not find a price on the web anywhere.

I could be tempted by them instead of ZU's.

I did after you mentioned it but I much prefer the price Cibit posted ! Laughing

I tend to steer clear of Flea Bay, couple of used items I have bid on recently have gone for more than new full recommended retail price !

I know you can get some really good bargains on there but I seem to pick popular things to bid on !

At the show today, there was 1 stand that had them for £155 each, and another at £140 a piece Thumbs Up they look even better in the flesh, if i was buying ZU's at £140-£150 a pop, i would buy the Terrafirma instead to be different Whistle Did not have the balls to spend £700 as they would not do a deal Evil or Very Mad
