Rowdyr32 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 If you have some could please let know if they have a spare set of rims with roadworthy tyres laying around. I would only have to drive for 100km max and have them for a few days and they will be putted around on. There will be a payment of beer or spirits provided also. I may get pulled up by the engineer as it has s15 rims on it at the moment with 2 dead tyres so even if they pass engineering they will fail rwc. Unfortunantly I'm not able to use my 18x10's because there to big. Bummer! The car goes in on Saturday to the engineer so I will know then if thier ok for that. I should have it back on Monday or Tuesday and reg'd by Friday providing the mechanic isn't to fussy. If you know of a good mechanic for RWC in the south could you please pm me their details and not post them up. I need it reg'd do the NSW excursion next fortnight and still have a fair few other bits and pieces to do to the car by then so your help will be really appriciated.

GTRgeoff Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Mine have semis on them (32GTR wheels) and I'm pretty sure they are legal but they may add further concerns if the engineer is a bit dense.

Rowdyr32 Posted October 19, 2006 Author Share Posted October 19, 2006 Thanks guys but I might take up Geoff's offer. The stock rims will make the car look stockish for the engineer and mechanic as long as the tyres are at the legal tread depth and rated to australian standards. I can also return the rims to where ever you want them.

R31Nismoid Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I have 2 - 32 GTR wheels with 100% decent rubber. But im not sure about the other two tyres as they are on the rear. So best case i have 4 with great rubber. Or worst case i have 2 with great rubber, and 2 with useless rubber. Lemme know if ya need em Gareth Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/139426-calling-on-all-sau-members-i-need-to-scab-a-set-of-rims-for-engineeringrwc-of-my-32gtr/#findComment-2598574 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blind_elk Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I have a set of 17x7.5s with 50% B/S GIIIs on them. But they are a +40 offset, so they'll sit too far in. Up to you. No payment required.

funkymonkey Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 I have a pair of R32 GTR rims on the front of my car you can borrow as long as you replace em with something else in the meantime so I can still drive the car I just passed roadworthy/rego about a week and a bit ago with em on.

I'll contact on of you soon as the RWC guy knocked me back on tyres but all the other parts he picked were just globes and wipers really.
