Those are nice wheels, but by the time I have paid out for shipping to Finland and our nice import costs, it would probably cost more than having new wheels made to fit my car over here?
offset are close if not identical. Check out Fikse website, their wheels are much lighter & stronger than OEM wheels. Aren't there ways around import costs for used parts?

I have decided that I will have the wheels made to fit my car. At the moment I am talking to a company in UK to get the wheels made.

Unfortunately, import costs to Finland is the same for anything - new or used

The wheels from the company in the UK cost a bit more than the price on new Fikse wheels, but I save on shipping and import.

And here is what the new wheels are going to fill - collected her from the body shop Monday evening
