Hi all,
I’m looking for a rear 240r cup 5 spoke wheel for my exige…
Bought a set of 4 recently and only 3 appear to be round… Great.
If anyone has a spare they are willing to part with I would be extremely grateful.
Any colour and condition… It must be straight though.

I used a company to straighten a wheel I bought for our Q3, they specialised in track and race car wheels and it seemed they could repair even the most destroyed or misshapen wheels, might be worth a call? I’ll have to find them again, PM me if you are interested.
Hi Ade,
I’ve let a wheel specialist have a go at it and it’s pretty good to be fair but not perfect.
It’s the outer rim so it’s visable in the light when rotating.
The wheel we had done had been to three companies who all said nothing could be done with it, these guys sorted it and it is perfectly round now.
I usually try not to promote too much on here companies I have used, but these guys were really good.
Our Q3 wheel was twisted on the hub etc and was supposed to be impossible to repair, these guys fixed it.

Ask for Del
Thanks Ade,
I’ve contacted Del and I’m going to send it up to him.
Last shot as it looks like the only replacement wheel available is in the states.

Be good to find out if he can do it, be another recommendation for them if he does.
Yeah I agree. Lotus have no stock, phoned rimstock who told me to phone lotus as they can’t supply to anyone except lotus so had a productive day.
He sent me a video of our wheel before and after, the change was amazing, everybody said our wheel was impossible to fix
Not cheap but available.

Worrying, says Front and 17" 
Yeah I knew of these.
Unfortunately that’s the same price as new.
They are re-powdercoated and off a salvage car so I have no real way of knowing if it’s better than what I have.
I’m not saying I’m against buying from there but it’s top bucks for what’s a salvage yard…even quoting lotus’s £700 new dosnt help.
Naaaah That will have the info right and the wheel will be like brand new with a full 15 years warranty with free fitting along with a full valet and a tank of fuel
So far so good Ade,
He just called to say he’s cracking on with it tomorrow.
Things are looking up.
Cheers Ade.
fingers crossed it will be fine
I’ve used ACE as well, they did a set of Victory wheels for me years ago that were all very oval, came back shot blasted & round, can’t remember if it was the same name but definitely the same company 
Arrived back today and to the eye it looks great.
Havnt had it painted as I’m taking it back to where where did them last time.
Thanks for this Ade, between you and Dave you’ve helped me out allot so thanks very much. The lotus community is one of the finest out there.
Cross fingers it will be ok, but after dealing with them previously I know it will be fine
