Hi, my Elise has a fractured rear wheel (Argyll potholes!), which now explains the slow puncture.
Does anyone have an eight spoke wheel to sell?
Does anyone have experience of getting wheels repaired?
thanks B

I have a set that I will be selling. Front tyres are like new, less than 500miles. Rears are shot. Wheels are in really good condition with center caps.

There is a SELOC advert, guy selling single rear toyota wheels in various states
http://classifieds.seloc.org/ads/elise- ... es-toyota/
Sure you could get a courier on Internet to post pretty cheaply.
I've had a 18inch rear wheel on my BMW welded due to a crack across the inside, can see a 1inch weld line from the repair, cost me something like £40, not had any problems since it was done. Guys said they do a few of them every week without any issues.
If you can buy second hand almost as cheap as a repair, I go with buying rather than repairing. I would have done if I could have got a BMW spare for a reasonable price.

Thanks Mikie711 - please PM me to discuss?
Thanks also to IanD for the SELOC link - found my way back onto SELOC and have sent the seller a message. useful thoughts on repair /replace too.

I have a single rear S2 wheel lying in the garage gathering dust which you can have for a charitible donation of your own choosing (or for free if you decide not to bother
). I have a picture of it somewhere. It is a reconditioned (by Lotus) wheel but has never been fitted. Be careful with these wheels as there are 2 different types. This is why I still have this one. Will get a picture to you ASAP.
Where are you?

Hi
thank you massively for making contact.
I am in Argyll so not exactly next door to you (!!) but if the wheel is the right one I will come and collect it from you and of course will make the charitable donation ............
Mine is the eight spoke one and I believe is compatible with a Rover wheel. I can get more information if needed but I'm sure photos will help.
My Elise is a '55 S2 111R. Shall I send you a photo of the wheel?
You have made my day - thank you SO much!!
best wishes
Belinda
