Wow. Not good. I heard they issued new bolt separately to those on the first batches well seems USA anyway
If paid with credit card try that route to get your money back

Failing that I am sure people will buy as long as you make aware new inserts and bolts needed.
Good luck

I have seen pictures of silver and white fitted -
tried to upload but can never get a small enough file or whatever to upload any pictures

try some of the ur quattro FB pages and ask for pictures - mine not fitted yet but looking at a set fitted to a red ur and looks good

If i can jump on this thread briefly.. may have a set of four 8jx15's for sale soon. I have collected a few and am getting some refurbished to go on my car.

I thought I'd just do them all in the proper silver which is what I'd put on my car, but do you/anyone think i should do the spares white? Or offer them cheaper and not refurbished so buyer can do whatever colour they may want?

I doubt you have, but I’m after a single unrefurbished 8x15 R8 to make my spare three a set of 4 for the rallycar.

I'd afraid I will want to sell as a set of four.
Although, if 3 other people want a single one that would work...

So I have to say these toyos are on my car now and they are proving superb, two things are obvious, the Dunlop’s by age were well past their best, and these combined with all the work on the suspension are like night and day. No tramlining and a super positive confidence inspiring drive.

Ours is still on T1R’s and they’re probably considered an ancient tyre design in mid 2021 but for how we use the Ur Quattro v cost and comfort v longevity etc. they’ve been lovely. I’m sure if they were put to modern tyre test rigour they’d be pretty average but that’s just fine for an average Quattro with an average driver on an average drive.
