Quite a good price too I reckon, the only thing that puts me off buying them myself id the feedback. He has quite a few bad ones considering he hasn't sold that much. Is it worth a punt?

Nah! - They look like cheap Halfrauds type copies with them being multifit.

You reckon they're not real jobbies? I was thinking they were these:-
Inovit STIV's. How could you tell if they were real or not?

They have the same centre caps and look the same, but obviously the seller has no idea that those wheels sold for £400 EACH new and that's without tyres.
If they are the real deal it would be better to get right down there and collect them, but just turn them over and look in the spokes for Rays or Inovite markings.
If they are real they are one hell of a bargain!

There copies of Volks rays te37. i had them fitted and they have a 5 stud pattern not a multi stud fitment. The originals cost about £400 a wheel. The centre caps are £85 each and are extras

Steer well clear. As keith says, the Inovit STIV are copies of the Volks but theyre soft as shite. Even slightly graze a kerb and they buckle. One of the ones i had developed a flatspot for an unknown reason. Wheel was mint, never clipped or hit anything, just deformed itself. Will never have inovit wheels again.

Oh and the Inovits retailed about £400 for a full set of 18's (ex tyres) when i got mine, not per wheel.

Ive got 17" Inovit Torques on mine and I think Jonny had the same or similar Inovit on his car which are now on Baldys. Like most items you can get the occasional bad one due to fluctuations in the manufacturing process. Sounds like Peril has just been unlucky.

Theyre deffo inovits. Volks only come as a single fit wheel, not multifit.

I had my Volks refurbed. When i tried to get the original stickers from co-ordsport as they were the official importers at the time. The amount of questions I had to answer was unreal. On enquiring why all the questions I was informed that individuals were buying the stickers and putting them on inovit wheels selling them to people. Soon as they damaged an alloy they were contacting co-ordsport to get the wheel replaced only to find out the had copies
