[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

as title says,,.. i have these sht hot wheels for sale (woot!) brisbane, some light scratches, tyres are vietkongchina brand i think, 90% tread, would look pretty good on micra dumped i reckon.. offers peeps
edit: 15x 6.5 +38 195/50/15 tyres

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Hey Turbo, I'm interested. Can you advise:

Wheel brand and style?
Offset?
Lugs included?
Centre caps?
Tyre spec 195/45?

Were they from one of your cars - can you vouch for their condition?

Cheers, Matt.

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

condition.. pretty good, some very light rash on the rims.. can have them machined up good as new here in brisbane.. have to get price but.. unsure of wheel brand and style.. i think they may be advanti's... offset is +38 from what i can read on the wheel, center caps yeh.. advanti centre caps.. they were on the wheel when i got them but kinda a loose fit .. not loose enough to fall out thou, tyre spec is 195/50/15 no lugs. standard micra ones should fit. yes, from one of my cars. all wheels are pretty much identical to this wheel.. this is probably the worst for gutter rash. more then happy to send interstate at buyers expense, i can fit one to the blue car tomorow if i get time and take a pic of it if it helps you decide?

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

here's another pic of the rear of the wheel, i haven't buffed them yet.. most of the small speks will come of, its just road tar/bugs n ****.

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Yeah a pic on your blue car would be awesome. Not sure about the tyre size though - I'd be interested to see if you get any scrubbing with the coilovers that low - with the over height of the 50 series tyres.

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

hmm mmyes, teins don't go quite as low as my gabs.. but we'll c anyways my 16's just touch the rear bar on pshyco cornering/pothole. i'll throw em on tomorow and go for a spin.

 

[smidge]

they'll look great, the dish/chrome edge looks awesome on micra's...

if anyone wants a chop to see what they'll look like post a pic of your car at a similar angle to the photo turbo posted...

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Ok here's a Photoshop of them on White Knight. Just need to see them on your car Turbo. Again my only concern is the 50 series being over size.

 

[smidge]

whiteknights got bad boy... Mad!

and depos.... shiny...

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Yeah in concept only Can't live with the Hyundai style bonnet vents it has now so when they get filled in the Bad boys is gonna come out in him!!

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

littlebear WROTE:

"Yeah in concept only Can't live with the Hyundai style bonnet vents it has now so when they get filled in the Bad boys is gonna come out in him!!

+ super s bar! needs it so bad.. +1 for pissing of the bonnet vents, and poxy steering wheel/interior mods

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Yep the steering wheel is gone and replaced with this Momo - black and grey leather, matches the seats very well. It's 320mm but steering is easy thanks to the power steering. All stickers are gone etc. I am also thinking of ditching the rear seat and shelf ala Blue Monster. Also the gauges need upgrading to better quality ones

- I have only driven it back from the transport depot, then a short blast with the new steering wheel (before the gearbox started leaking).

Ah so much to do and so little time!!

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Maybe Super S bar but I have 2 SuperS's for that. I kind of like the point of difference this car has.

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

good to see your replacing all the el cheapo supercheap parts with decent gear. mmm defi's anywho, took some pics of em on my car.. i'll upload em...

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

looks pretty good imo, had a proper look, 2 rims are pretty decent, 2 have a bit of gutter rash, if they were goin on my car i'd probably have em machined, centres are perfect. tyres are better then i thought, almost new, heaps heaps heaps of tread left, atleast 20 decent 5 min long burnouts , all tyres are 195/50/15, 2 are "barrum" and 2 are "tornado", pretty sure they'd be china tyres, but **** there sticky, grips heaps better then my nexen's on the 16's, doesn't scrub, but my guards are slightly rolled at the back and completely rolled at the front, i don't think rear's would be an issue, i can see how the fronts might need rolling on stock guards... MIGHT... that said, chris's wattanabe's didn't scrub at all on my red car, and scrub hardcore on his black car.. so go figure

 

[CMF_Mickb]

There's not much that doesn't look good on a car dropped on it's nuts =)

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Looks nice Turbo, thanks for going to the trouble - can't wait to put coilovers on WK - it really makes a difference to the look when you can get the ride height just right. White Knight is just that fraction low at the front and high at the rear on the current spring/shock setup.

You got a price in mind for the wheels/tyres?

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

sorry boys and girls, these are sold pending payment. sorry to the other interested parties.

 

[CMF_littlebear]

No probs. Are you usually running 16s on the blue car?

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

yup... they may be for sale at a later date.. mayyybe

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Out of interest what width? Any issues?

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

6.5 wide. not really any issues, but if you have 2 or more people in the car, on really really hard cornering the passenger rear lightly scrubs the guard..

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Hmmm. I have always admired the look of your blue car and is the inspiration to get coilovers. I just assumed they were 15s on it for some reason.

It's the look man

Are they 195/40s?

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

205/40/16

 

[CMF_deNs]

Tornado tyres are indian, just for reference. Was looking at a set of wheels that were on here actually that had them... yeah didn't buy them

---dens

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

i'd rate the tornado's better then most falken / yoko's, had em on my daihatsu.. sticky as.

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

back up for sale.

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Go on. Tempt me.

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

well previous buyer had $450 on em.. whatchu got

 

[CMF_littlebear]

How's 350?

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

yeh, aight. allthough for that price, i'm not going to get the lips machined.. that's a diy..

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Ok sold.

Shall I pay into your account as previous?

Can you box so I can get picked up by TNT?

Cheers, Matt.

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Oh, any idea of approx weight/dimensions per wheel+tyre

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

no idea on weight champ.. overall dimensions of one wheel is... 550mmx 220mm i can put some cardboard over the face of the wheel, (i've sent wheels all over oz and to nz like this) and tape em up...

 

[CMF_tris]

how much does it roughly cost to send wheels... i wana get a set from perth.... will that be heaps expensive?

 

[CMF_littlebear]

Yep no probs with that.

Payment is made. Can you please PM me the pickup address? Not sure pickup times for TNT - I can try to find out if you need.

 

[CMF_turbo march-rolling shell]

eh? you have my bank details? what'd you buy of me before? anywho.. yeh.. pm'd. it'll take me a day to wrap em up.. so pick up on thursday would be ok. friday would be even better.. g/f should be home all day friday.
