mazda6 17" rims

[pr1mo]

hey hey,
i walked into the tyre factory dandenong today and they were selling some 17 x 7"s off a mazda 6 in immaculate condition, i couldnt fault them. im guessing theyd suit someone with a SP20 or BA V6.

anyhoo they wanted $900 all up without tyres (mazda6 ones arent the right size for astinas anyway). this price would probarbly be less with trade in i imagine.

if anyone from interstate wants em im sure i can do buisness for u as im just down the road from em!

cheers mike

LOL... The wheel fetish continues

hey I tell you what mike... find me some factory 16" eunos 800M 96-99 model machined alloy rims for me. I would be interested in that :)

Hmm, I'd be interested to see how they fit on an SP20... if only they were up in Sydney.

tyre factorys will be opening in sydney soon according to the guy so if u dont wanna go thru me maybe that could be the way togo. theyll ship interstate no worries :) and if your really keen i can go down and take some photos for you

cheers mike

Do you know what the offset of those rims is?
Would help in deciding whether suitable for SP20.

I reckon they woud look good on Zed's ride.

DAMN 60mm offset!

[Zed]

The Australian Mazda6 wheels are actually 55mm offset. They should fit ok - might need 10mm spacers though. Don't know whether I want to go through the whole trouble of adding spacers, longer bolts etc

And the whole thing will probably end up costing the same if not more than an entirely new aftermarket wheel/tyre package. Would be an interesting look though.

its upto you, i can arrange things at this end no worries

cheers mike

Thanks for the offer Mike, but I'll have to pass on it for now. Will let you know if the situation changes though. Cheers.
