They look the same as the rims eastern wheel works make, seeing as your in the UK i'd suggest some custom wheel manufacturer over there
HOW THE FARK, would you not notice the wheel that loose??
Wanted: Car trailer or beaver tail truck, let me know what you got

Was that wheel loose, and the studs made the holes like that?
Or was it the wrong stud pattern, and it has been drilled until it fits?
Thats one of the worst I have ever seen. Offroad use or not
