these wheels arrived yesterday

won them on ebay for £102, brand new still in the box
there genuine rover 600 wheels and when rover were still going they were £178+vat a wheel(so £210 a wheel)
will look great on my 600 diesel.
i already have alloys on the car, but one is buckled really bad and cant find anyone to sell me just 1 wheel(breakers will only sell sets).

they have more for sale if anyone else is interested

If they are genuine 600 they wont fit a 400.

600 is Honda based and uses Jap stud pattern.

400 is standard Rover

That's true - but whats the relevance?

You beat me to it! I read that link and everything presuming the seller would have written "may also fit a 400" or something, but alas, it appears that the comment has just come out of nowhere!

Those were fitted to the iS models (200mk3 & 400mk2) near the end of the production run, I think.

seller is brown and gammons they are def for 600 they wouldn't get it wrong

 

[forehead]

Hadn't noticed the posters id description.

Just concerned that others might think they'd be suitable for anything other than 600

 

[AndBurG]

ok it was aimed at platinum saying they were fitted to 200/400's

 

[adrian williams]

They are "City Ten Spoke" wheels and were available in the fitting for both 400 and 600.
They are quite rare on the 400 and I believe were only offered for about 18 months. I have these on my 400.
They look great when clean, but are rather vulnerable to kerbing etc.

i was not sure about them last night when i read this thread, but by pure coincidence a 400 parked outside our shop today with those wheels on ,and they look much better in the "flesh" as it were, nice choice shaken.

[Platinum]

Do an image search for "Rover 200" on google. One of the press(?) shots of the 200 has these wheels on.
