the time has come for new wheels again.. for the saph.. its been lowered -25mm and has koni shocks all around.. im looking at the New 6 spoke Mo 18x8, are thee any problems with the wheels catching the koni 'Cup'? and whats the best offset to go for..

 

see my sig for wheels that suit a saff

 

they do look nice but i dont think they wil suit my car.. got tiger stripes on

 

Just buy them of reyland and he will advise,,, prob be et35, 8x18

 

oh yeah i forgot, you are into ruining the look of your car not trying to improve it

3 spokes or venoms for you

 

nope im into being diffrent

my cars not ruined.. i dont think

 

BRILLIANT, beat me to it

 

A saff with stripes is ruined. No ifs or buts about it lol

 

fit some tiger legs to the hubs and push it about on castors

 

In regards to being different tiger stripes have been done a few times so would'nt leopard print be a bit of a step in the right direction but as long as you like it thats all that REALLY matters. Mo's are cool!

 

theres being diffrent tnd then theres being stupid

chop fuck off

 

Are you on drugs?

How can you think that rally car livery and rally car wheels don't go together ?

 

i didnt say they dont go together.. i said i dont think they will suit my car

and mike if im spending that much on that engine i must be on drugs

 

Thats why you're looking at buying Compo MO's?

 

R5Ford


you really deserve some of these

 

Rich piss off and take your dustbin lid wheels with you

yhep.. iv been diffrent.. iv had wheels on the saph that no one else has ever had

so now i want mo's

 

Aaron,
Actually, I think you will find lots of owners who put on wheels that don't fit their cars .

 

Just get your wallet out then!!

 

i will when i order a trmec box and a atb diff off you
should be this week or next week martin..

can you pm me a price for the box, diff and wheels please.

 

yes maybe but they were unique and no one else had them.. i could get them remade to the right offset as there a split rim but id rather have mo's

 

errr.. why are you buying a tremec from the UK for?

Why not buy direct from the US when you have to pay extra buying an imported part? (and a damn heavy one at that - sorry Mike!)

Im sure you can get the box imported for around AUD $2100

 

what diffrence is weight going to make?? im importing it in a container thats going to be packed with my stuff.. why would i want to have the extra headache of dealing with a company from the us when i can get it all from mike and martin.. who i know are reliable and i know there products are spot on.. and with the box il have everything i need of martin so wont need to piss around

thanks for the info tho matey

 

at last you talk some sense. Now get rid of those stripes

 

i actully considred it ill see how the mo's look next to them

 

Its a matter of the Tremec was imported to the UK and paid for in shipping and taxes, then its a matter of paying shipping and taxes again once it arrives in OZ. Then again I don't know how much Mike or Martin are charging.

If it was me and it it meant saving over a grand I would consider importing one seperately, but like I said, Im not sure what you're paying. In my own case, Ive chased parts from the USA, UK, France, Japan, Thailand, Germany and Lithuania (!) and have saved thousands in doing my homework. Then again, if you dont like chasing parts (which i particularly enjoy!), get it all from a one stop shop like Mike or Martin.

Just looking out for you mate.

 

i know mate and i appriciate it.. i just really cant be bothred chasing parts up etc.. the cars been a pain in my ass from day 2..since i went past stage 1 its been nothing but headache.. so just want it done and out the way,.. if i get it all from mike and martin i know where the parts are, what the timeline is etc.. and i know they will all arive on the same day which means i can get it sorted..my saphs my everyday driver so cant have it off road for to long.

 

the mo's will look anyway. Its the stripes that dont. get that in your head

 

nice

 

and me, as SOON as he said that i was gonna say he needs some 3 spokes
