As Martin sez, no. The ones in the first post are 7 spoke ones, these were the 6 spokers they replaced when the hubs changed.

Yep, deffo don't fit. Pre MY06 FFRR 18" rims that are no good for a D3.

well actually...........................
The six spokes in the pic from Andy Foster do fit the D3 V8 (or a TDV6 with V8 brakes fitted), as whilst they foul the caliper on the TDV6, with the caliper slightly further out with the V8 discs (even with the caliper being the same), the alloy then clears. Its due to the shape of the Alloy casting on the back of the alloy as it nears the center.

Thanks for that Al but I'm not sure where it caught. Too late now anyway as all the tyres are off the car and the SE alloys are being sandblasted and refurbished as we speak.
