14"x5.75J TOM'S Igeta alloys, 4x100 ET38 CB63.4
Quite fancy a bit of a change (hey, I don't wear the same pair of shoes every day for years on end, why should my car? ;D ) so I thought I'd pop these up and see if there's any interest.
Bought these from a guy on Driftworks 2 years ago who had them on his mx5. I ran them for about a week then had them professionally bead blasted and powdercoated in Satin Gold by these guys (http://www.banburypowdercoating.co.uk/).

The finish is properly solid, with no obvious flaws or any flaking. One wheel has picked up a chip on one of the spokes, this has been touched in with gold paint and is only noticeable close up. The rest are in great nick. No kerbing/gouges at all. I'll get some detailed photos up later if anyone's interested.
These wheels are properly properly light, considerably lighter than the stock MR2 ones they replaced! They seem to be bloody rare as well, at least in this fitment/offset (most are 4x114.3 ae86/rwd Starlet fit). I've been looking since I got them and I've not found another set on t'internet in the UK.

Would ideally not let these go until after 16th of April, as I'm using the car daily until then.
Tyres are 4x budgets (3xEnduro Runways, 1xChampiro with similar tread pattern I think) with a fair bit of tread left on them, yours if you want them. The Champiro has started to crack on the sidewall, iirc the Runways are okay. I've also got a set of spigot rings to bring them down to 54.1mm CB (MR2 size) if needed.
Looking for something around the £300 mark, offers will be considered but they're properly cool and I'm in no hurry to shift them so nothing too silly please. Happy to consider a swap with something 4x100 and interesting (a bit dishy?) whadyagot?
Collection from Banbury (Oxfordshire), happy to pack them up for a courier.
PM me or reply here please,

Not sure why the rest are a bit bleached, but they're all the same colour really, I promise:

^This is the one with a chip on, you can just about see it top left.
