So after much deliberation I’ve decided to ‘offer’ my Duchy Banded Amarok’s for sale. When I say ‘offer’, what I mean is I’m not desperate to sell them and if they don’t achieve the asking price, I’d rather keep them myself and run them next year as summer wheels.

A bit of background history…. I originally bought these genuine, standard VW Amarok steels from Chris @The Van Cave in late 2020, they then went on to Duchy where they were banded and finished in his smoked chrome. I received them from Duchy in January 2021 and I ran these wheels and tyres on my very light weight T28 day van with no issues at all for 12 months and covering 8000 miles.

The only reason I took them off was because I’d decided to purchase a second set of Duchy banded steels…. this time the 17” GP in chrome to which I had all season tyres fitted with the intention of running these through the rest of the winter. At this point I removed the Amarok’s from my van, thoroughly cleaned and dried the wheels and tyres, then dry stored them in my garage covered over with dust sheets. As I say I had no issues with them at all…. the wheels and tyres were immaculate and had no damage whatsoever.

Just recently I decided to have the Amarok’s professionally dipped/stripped and finished in chrome powder coat and while they’re like ‘brand new’ and haven’t yet been refitted to my van, I thought now was the best time to offer them for sale.

So the details are:- 18” Duchy Banded Amarok’s, freshly powder coated in chrome, 8.5” wide front and 9.5” wide rear (staggered). Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 Tyres…. size 255/45R18 103Y EXTRA LOAD all round. Premium tyres MADE IN GERMANY. The tyres all have at least a good 5mm of tread and are very evenly worn as you can see from the pictures.

To be brutally honest I was going to ask £1500 for this package, just because the base wheels are so sound and the premium quality of the tyres, but as the finish of the powder coat isn’t exactly 100% perfect in my eyes (but then powder coating on steel wheels probably never is), I’ve reluctantly decided to reduce that to £1400 (no offers).

Also as some of you will know, Duchy (who was the go to man for banded steels) is no longer producing these quality wheels.

So if you are seriously interested, then please PM me?

Collection would be preferred from Leicestershire, but if I can help with delivery (within a reasonable distance) then I’ll be happy to do that. Thank you for looking :thumbsup:

Cheers, Matt
