If they have a tight fit? Not really bad. You can hide the wheel nuts and have a good looking spinner.
They just don't fit on that alloy Cobra. Wrong rims?

Well spotted Alan.
They actually look pretty convincing on those chrome wheels in the video, but they look a real mess on the 289 in the ad. What were they thinking of?

Maybe the car has actually been sprayed with aluminium paint and it is really fibreglass.
Only joking!!!!!!!

Re: What going on with the wheels
It's a silly price and the ad is littered with bullsh1t and inaccuracies. They're also very misleading about what the car actually is and give no clue that I could see to its real identity.
Shameful really.

Re: What going on with the wheels
If they have cut corners on the quality of wheels what else is cheap and nasty underneath.
Perhaps some innocent mug will come along and buy it on the basis that it's good value against the very expensive original cars.
On this basis perhaps we all need to re value our cars.

At 170k for that, I certainly need to revalue mine...

Perhaps this thread should be sent to the dealer to advise of all the inaccurate details?
