Arrrgh! What to do?!

Car  Monaco Blue Mk2
I recently lost out on a set of turinis off ebay and so after much debating I finally decided to get a new set of pro race 1.2 in high Power silver, with tyres (195.45.16) and delivered for about £560

However I have just recieved a second chance offer for the turinis (wheels only) on ebay. £211 + £40 p&p. I can get 4 tyres (205.45.16) fitted for just under £200.

The turinis can be seen here, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RENAULT-CLIO-16-ALLOY-WHEELS-No-Tyres_W0QQitemZ4617264487QQcategoryZ10410QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I'm going to ask for some more pictures of them to see what this slight scuffing is like before I do anything. But I just can't decide now.

Turinis are great wheels for the clio and I know they look good, they would also have wider tyres, however they aren't brand new and it would be costing me £450ish. On the other hand pro race are lovely wheels and would be brand spanking new for just over £100 more. However the tyres wouldn't be as wide and they not turinis!

Any thoughts because this is doing my nut in! :dapprove: :S
 
been there mate, personally I'd go for the Turinis, I'm not a fan of the pro race, I was lucky enough to get a near perfect set of Turinis with average tyres for £325.

It's a pain isn't it! You were very, very lucky!

^^Kully, Thats what i'm thinking. If I get them and i'm not that impressed I could poss sell them singularly for a profit or have a go at a refurb.

yep , as many cup owners would prefer a spare than the 2 can foams of poo.
lol, :quiet:
 
Oh yes and another thing, would both these types of wheels go straight on Mk2 Ph1 or would I need spacers etc?

Still waiting for the bloke to get back to me with the pics but if they do only look like minor scuffs i'm having the turinis.
