    wheel deal

    good afternoon guys.

    i would like your help for the following.

    i am in need for an extra set of drift wheels for my car.

    i currently have 235/40/17 tyres on 9" unknown et wheels.

    i would like to decrease the size of my tyres, so i have bought some 215/45/17.

    the car is a lowered 180sx with 0.5mm spacers in the back. for now i am only searching for rear wheels, but if a good 4 wheel package appears i will take it.

    i would like to know, please, which wheels can you get, on these measures.

    17x8/8.5/9 5x114.3 et25/28/30 (as low as possible)

    i would like to know prices please, for the measures show, for 2 and for 4 wheels.

    also, with and without cheap ass tyres.

    and also, please, with shipping to portugal.

    thank you very much.

    joao

    GTRs we dont do in a 17x8.5 I am afraid.

    Shipping to Portugal is £45 for a set of 4 wheels.

    Total delivered for those 4 wheels will be £710.

    I can put Nankangs on them for you, but not with the stretch you have requested

    damn. dont really know what to do. will probably risk the 9" wheels for the back and strech the 215's.

    the tyres are a bit more than i thought. i think i will buy the wheels on their own.

    do you guys take paypal?

    215 45 17 will go easy on a 9.they just dont want the liability if it flys off and you die.

    i was using that size last time it was dry at mallory and using 20psi cold.

    anyway, is there any formula to apply sxoc prices to the wheels in rarerims.co.uk?


    you said 710 delievered for 4 17 wheels, but im trying to decide on the above wheels or thinking about buying 2 17 8" and 2 16 8"

    Rarerims website is correct for SXOC guests

    if you want staggered sets, just half the price of the 2 sets that interest you to get the total.

    thanks for the headsup, mate.

    so, do i place the order directly on the website, or through here?

    as stated before, i would be paying with paypal.

    cheers.

    There is no difference with those 2 wheels, other than 1 we clearly didn't update the price on

    paypal is fine, wheels@rarerims.co.uk - just paypal there with details of which wheels you'd like
