Its a good EK as long as there is more EK than rust :lol: . Many have more rust than EK.

Wonder what those wheels are off, and whether they were a bolt-up fit?

Cheers,

they are Volvo rims I keep for picking up wrecks Harv, they fit OK but you only get 3 or 4 turns on the wheel nuts as they are so much thicker then a steel rim.
