Hey everyone,

Putting my wheels up for sale here for a local to scoop them up before they head off to the main section.

Brand: Rays / Volk Racing

Model: F-Zero Challenge

Size: 18x9

Offset: +22

Tyres: 2x 85-90%, 2x 75-85% with slightly worn inner edge 255/35R18

Condition: There is a bit of gutter rash and some scratches, the usual wear for older wheels. Also tiny bit of chipped paint in non visible areas.

Price: $2000 or decent offer

I have never come across another set in this colour and I have been advised they were an extremely limited run so you can be almost certain no one else has them. Very regretful sale and they would be a nice addition before marques in the park..... *hint*

Any questions feel free to ask.

offset +22? im surprised they fit on your car! spacers? GTS-t's usually require a minimal offset of about +32, dont they? please correct me if im wrong :no:

I ran 18 x 8 +30 all round and had no problems. But my car was also not very low. GL with the sale hot colour for them rims too.

Youre thinking in reverse Luke... The lower number if it is in positive the wider the offset is (depending on the width of the wheel). For example +22 will sit further away from the strut than a +32 in the same size and width.

You should buy these wheels Luke they would look GREAT on your car especially seeing as they have a red inner lip!

(Its just a pity that they have horrible tyres on them).

DO IT! :)

Bullet32 - haha horrible tyres.. I've just gotten back from tyre shopping and you would be surprised how many reputable shops tried to sell these to me. A certain shop was pushing Nankang's onto me like crazy because they didn't have any Adrenalins in stock. The Nankangs are fairly decent for their price and my driving but then again I dont have Federals to compare them to :thumbsup: . I just want to see a local buy them as I really like them and would be good to see them round on someones car every now and then.

Cheers guys!

Hey if you like Nankangs then thats cool...

Im just a bit bias towards a certain brand (as you may have noticed) :thumbsup:

If you like the Bridgestone adrenalins then you might like the 595 EVO (see picture) its still very new and we dont have a lot of sizes but its definately a sticky street tyre...

Lol, I never said I liked them.. they're just a large step above some of the crap I've driven on in the past...

Where abouts do you work, I may have to pay you a visit and check them out as I'm not really impressed with some of the crap thats been fed to me today. Best value for money I've come across so far are Advan AS01 for $1472 for a set.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
