kinghorn Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 any idea where the best place to buy these from, as TnCs trade price is more than i was looking to spend
thefastone Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 Oh I was pondering the same thing mate, as I also want the PFF7s, but I dont really want to pay SILLY MONEY™ for them...
westtra Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 From what ave seen it's either buy replica's which have questionable reliability or just keep your eye's open from them on ebay/SN/and for sale sections on here.
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 Revolution sell both the copies AND the real McCoy.......Midlands also sell them Search PFF7 threads within SN and you'll see Mike Wood of Prodrives responses on the copies. Some people have had problems, other have not. They are so expensive because of the flow forming process required to make the thin spokes so strong. The copies use conventional methods and are way heavier ( not a huge issue unless you are Andy F i.e looking to shave weight everywhere on the car). Many people are happy with the copies so just go with your own budget. Just had mine powercoated and have kerbed one already. They have zero protection from the tyre lip. Cal
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 Hey Andy - I went for silver with flitter in it............wasn't keen in it to begin with but now I love it - pretty much the same colour as these :- Here's the link i was talking about :- http://bbs.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-general...?highlight=pff7 another interesting read :- http://bbs.scoobynet.com/wheels-tyres-brak...?highlight=nero Cal
GaryD Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 TSL sell genuine PFF7s, thats where our set came from, but luckily they were on our car before we bought it. I think TSL has a ebay shop that they sell them on aswell. No idea how the prices compare to other places tho.

~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 Quote Cal, were they done at KH lastweek?? Looked nice apart form the low pressure [] Yeah were done @ KH - all pressures were okay, back one looked low due to the low profile [:^)]
ANDYJDMSTI Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 thought they looked rather bright...............your tyre must've looked low due to my glass eye being all to f@ck [][]
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 ask Bing - we checked it put before we went for a quick spin later on [<)]
thefastone Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 Is it 17"s your after or not....? its 17s that I'm after.... Do you happen to have some....? and are they the real deal....?

thefastone Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 ahhhhh, Ok I never knew that, My bad.... Cheers for pointing that our Dunk! [y]
RA Dunk Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 no probs dale, i was hunting for them as well before i bought my new ones, but i wanted prodrive wheels rather than replicas so i went with the PF`s instead, there similar to the PFF7`s though
Gee Wr1 Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 quote ~ ~ Cal ~~ Just had mine powercoated and have kerbed one already. They have zero protection from the tyre lip. Will 2nd that about no protection, kerbed mine in a car park [:'(] will be getting mine refurbed after winter.
SEEVERS Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 Question....If these only come in 18's,does this mean that the 17's on ebay with Prodrive embossed on them are copies,and if so is this not an infringement of the copyright..? Del.
RA Dunk Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 Seevers m8, i hunted high and low for them in 17" made by prodrive and was told they didnt exist, so i take it the ones on ebay are fake (if anybody can clear this up feel free do PFF7`s exist in 17" made by prodrive?

I have seen them on ebay too.....the spokes looks of a different design but looks genuine
derek_robertson Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 Got a used one in GOLD iff anyones interested, genuine PFF7 18" X 8" with brand new prodrive centre cap. Never kerbed or refurbished, few chips on the spokes though. First offer of a £100 gets it. Can post pic later. Del PS. sorry to highjack your thread m8.
