Tell me about it mate !!

Not an easy mistake to make usualy but these wheels have no info stamped on them whatsoever !

They would have looked the part to :(

I read the origional thread :nod:

As you say hopefully this will be an honest mistake and you can come to a suitable agreement with the seller :)

actually that'd make reasonably good drag wheels.
VIDAL BABBOON
05-02-2005, 20:36
I supose but im on a budget and the whole point of me buying the wheels was to whack my existing tyres on them !

Cant aford to buy another set of tyres at the moment :(

If I could i would have gone for 18's straight away lol

Nick, I've got a set of 195/65/15's you can have. :)
I'd be glad to get shot of them, they're in good cond.
came of my bmw when I changed the wheels.

Nice one Jezz

If I have problems with the refund then you might be getting a call lol

Would still have to get them machined out to the right centre bore and whack some 5mm spacers on them lol

It's loking more and more like ball ache at the minute lol
Jezz_S13
05-02-2005, 21:04
It deffo a ball ache.

15 x 8s would make half tidy drag wheels though, 15 x 10 would be better.
Get some proper radials on them. :nod:

Well I was looking at them thismorning and thought dam they look a bit small lol

Then poped one up to enterprise tyres and asked them to check the size... yup they are definately 15's lol

Glad I didnt spend any money on opening the centre bore out
:nod:
And i got my money back from halfords on the spacers.

So it's just the wheels that are the problem now :cry:

Gutted for you Nick. Had a similar problem (not as bad) with those 17" I bought off the board. They were listed as having a offset as ET15. When I got them two were ET35 and two were ET40 but at least they were the size they were advertised at.

Do you have the blokes address? It should have been on the boxes the wheels come in, if not call the courier company up and ask them. If you can get it, pay him a friendly vist with one or two friend :nod: :nod:

I'll keep you inform, but I think I might get rid of the 17's I showed you in the January meet after I get the kerbed one refurbed (taking it to be done tomorrow). If I do sell them and your interested I'll let you have first refusal. :thumbs:

Thanks mate :)

I am after a set of 18" idealy lol

The idea behind me buying the RL7's was they were 16" and I could have used my existing tyres on them....

Im a tad skint at the moment and have been fancying white wheels for ages these were cheap so I thought sod it lol

Im probably going to leave wheels for now and save for a mint set of deep dish 18's

Keep me in mind though lol
Wookie
11-02-2005, 18:58
These would be cheap to :nod: remember how much I told you I paid for them :D :D Hopefully it won't cost more than £25-30 to repair the kerbed one, so add those together and that's what I would be looking for them, if I sell them :thumbs:

pm on the way aswell :thumbs:
