Trophy Wheels

[kevin ellard]

A few days ago I saw a post, either on here or facebook, from someone in England selling 4 wheels for an MG5 Trophy. I wasn't interested at the time but now I want them and I can't find the post anywhere. Did anyone else see it and can point me in the right direction?

Later that day.....
Found it on facebook.

Anyone know what the list price of a new wheel would be from MG?

Thanks, I was looking for him but didn't find the post until a bit after I asked the question.

Hi Kevin, I don't know your timeframe, but I'll shortly have a set of Trophy wheels available, as new with less than 600 miles on them, once I get around to swapping mine out to a VW set. I've just had hernia surgery, so am immobile for a few weeks.

Wheels only, as tyres are going on my other set, but the price will be a "no brainer" as they say! I'm thinking £500 for the set of 4.

No idea of wheel price from MG, but I'd guess retail, in the region of £300 to £500 per wheel. For example, similar VW group size wheels are usually about £600 per wheel retail.

That's really interesting, Christopher was asking £750 including part worn tyres and I dont really need all 4. Will yours still have the TPMS sensors on them? £500 is a better outlay and gives me the chance to ebay the others.
Also, if you find someone who only wants one or two then I'm happy to buy whatever is left.
Sorry to hear you are immobile. I am not in any great rush. Where are you?

Sadly no sensors as they'll be getting swapped over to the new wheels along with the tyres.

That's fine. Just asking. I'll be swapping the one over that I have anyway. I am definitely interested, let me know when you think they will be available and we can sort out a day for me to come up.

Will give you a shout, most likely be a month or so.
