Not sure it should be in the 'Bargain spot' section, but received an email today saying the new Rostyle twisted wheels are reduced by £100 a corner.
Now £1800 for 5. They also use the normal landrover wheel nuts. Something they probably should have done on the original twisted wheels. Personally I prefer the older twisted wheels, but that's just me. Click image to enlarge |

Ok, not for me either. Looks like someone took a decent wheel and flattened it in a vice.
However if it is anyones cup of proverbial tea and they happen to fall in love with the marketing blurb. I'll gladly buy their old sytyle ones. With that in mind. I'm changing my tune to say these are the best wheels ever. Wow, amazing. Buy a set at a bargain £1800. then PM me to get rid of your old rubbishy outdated ones. |

Yup, ugly as sin.
Twisted kinda frustrates me, I'm not sure whether Fawcett actually just panders to the wealthy guys to make a buck (good business model, can't fault him) and he actually has some good taste? Would like a good poke around his workshop though. |

Making them flat certainly makes them far less attractive than the originals.

Greeni - you could always arrange a Def2.net visit. (The Yorkshire Centre of the Morgan Sports Car Club recently paid a visit to Twisted and thoroughly enjoyed it). Defender 90XS SW Mini Countryman Cooper S Morgan Plus 8 |

Have a look at his Td5 90 and decide for yourself. I think it's on his Instagram. |

Whilst I prefer the original more pronounced rostyles, I don't dislike these.
I thought they'd been reduced to £300 each 5no. £1500?! ?

Set of 4 proper original Rostyles refurbished, on eBay £200, and scruffy ones a lot cheaper, why would you pay £1800 for these

Have you seen the price of the Kingsley 16" x 8" Rostyles!!! Makes the Twisted look cheap!! If I ever see a second hand set at a decent price I'd snap them up for the V8. James
