P.S A couple of our members have aftermarket alloys on their berls, so give them a search.

mine were new ones, costing £350.00 ish so I informed insurance company, and of course up went my premium, not in an increase but as a mid term adjustment. Wheel nuts , insurance said fit locking ones so I did but when I changed to my snow tyres November time one locking nut had locked on, so had to be forced off. Took my local garage 30 seconds with oversized socket, and off it came. So took em back to halfors , got my 50.00 back and wont use them again, still got my halfords receipt so if they ever go missing I can produce that, and claim. But in reality if I had had a puncture on motorway I would have been truly stuffed being unable to change wheel. They were McGuard, one of the best.
If someone is gonna nick em, they will nick em, unlike me a thief would do same as my garage and they`d be off in seconds....

If the alloys are for a van, be carefull if you carry weight, some of the thinner spoked varietys buckle under pressure, much like myself
