Blindos On!
Thought you guys might like to see new Blindos on!

These Blindos are: Blindo Raid ET25 7x16 5X165 which were purchased second hand from a chap who sadly had just sold his 110 but had taken off the good bits to sell on. Wheels were originally sand colour but have been sand blasted and powder coated black.

Black on green, winner in my books! Thumbs Up Love blindos, just not a fan of the price tag! Been looking for some for my 110, just can't justify/afford new ones at the moment Sad

Can I ask where you both bought them? What offset have you gone with (if any choice)? And how much roughly you paid (without sounding too cheeky)?

Thanks
Simon

I got mine from LRS Off-road. Give Derrick a call and he will be happy to help.
I can't remember what offset mine are...or price!

Hi Simon,
No problem... I paid £580 second hand for 5 wheels which for Blindos is really, really cheep. The guy I bought them from purchased the wheels from Silverline wheels for a lot of money a few years ago, he showed me the receipt they are original wheels from Arcasting in Italy. The wheels have the ET25 offset but you can get them with the ET15 offset. The original colour was Sand but have been sand blasted and re-powder coated black.
I had been looking at new ones but they are so expensive(£200 plus per wheel) just very lucky to find these ones!

Don

Blimey! You were lucky at that price.
Thanks both for the replies. The wheels look awesome on both your trucks!
I'm swaying towards the anthracite if I can get hold of some. Like Greeni, my Def is silver also and I think the anthracite compliments the colour well.
