    [For Sale: Parts] 4x Porsche teledials

    I have surplus to requirements a set of Porsche Teledials, similar to these: no centre caps, no tyres, flaky paint on the insides of the barrels but the faces are good, if in need of a clean. they're all 7J x 15 and have an offset of ET52.3 so would work nicely on most cars with a 20-25mm...
