Hey Trevor Thanks for the quick reply. Yeh it's really annoying there is no marking on it at all. Going to take the one off the other side in hope there is something on the inside. It's completely buckled. I'm pretty sure they are alpine copies but have no idea who make them. Luckily I have 4 of the emr one which I am in the process if getting re-furbed before fitting :) Will still try and find a replacement as like having the wider tyres on the back. Phil

Hi all, This maybe a long shot but i am wondering if anyone could give me an idea of what make or name of wheels i have. I have 4 EMR product alloys 17" which have the width of 7.5J Stamped on them. Orginally these 4 wheel were fitted to my car, when i brough the car the previous owner gave me 2 extra alloys. These extra ones dont have any brand on them, or any information at all, i know they are 8.5J as i had them measured and have wider tyres fitted. Unfortunetly i hit the kerb pretty bad and have mangaged to buckle one and ideally want to replace it to keep the staggered tyre set up. Worst come to worst i can go back to the 4 EMR alloys. I have added pictures of them (i dont think i will win any photo competitions) If anyone knows or has any ideas any help would be greatly apprecitated. Only thing i do know is they are not alpina wheels due to the valve being in the wheel rim rather than where the wheet bolts are. Thanks Phil

In January i had the MOT for my car done, the only thing it failed on was the ABS light not coming on. I had the garage fit a new bulb but since then i have recently had problems with the dash board. As it stands now, the Fuel gauge just reads empty all the time, the speedometer stopped working yesterday. The rear fog dash light bulb no longer illuminates and one of the rear fog lights (passengers side) does not change to higher intensity when switched on Its not the bulb as i swapped the two sides over and had the same problem. Do the bulbs in the dash have to be soldered in? or do they just clip in like the rear brake lights ect.I am rather annoyed that all these problems are stemming from this garage changing one bulb, how likely is it that all the problems could be related to something they may have done? Also its not like i have done loads of miles since then either 2,000 maximum, Im lookin for other opinions not really sure i want to take it back to this garage but dont want to spend a load for something someone else may have caused, and in turn should put right. Thank god i know a reputable place that work on my Motorbike :D
