FS: Jap 17" wheels & tyres

[Peter Wilson]

Set of four Starform wheels (these are a high quality jap copy of German BBS mesh style wheels) - see pic below.

Front 17x8", +40mm offset, 225/45 tyres

Rear 17x9", +45mm offset, 245/40 tyres

5 stud - the offsets suit R33, 200SX, 300ZX and Supra (I had them on my R33).

Excellent condition - minor kerb scrapes on a couple.

Asking $1,300 total including nuts & locknuts, but I would prefer Adelaide buyers who can inspect and collect in person.

what tyres?

[Peter Wilson]

Hi h3roic5,

The tyres are Continental ContiSport (made in Germany).

Good quality, sticky tyres - not Taiwanese cheapies.

Fronts have good tread, rears are legal.

Cheers, Peter.

Here is a pic of the tyres for those who have asked...

[Peter Wilson]

C'mon guys - there must be more people after wide 17" rims than that!!

Make me a (sensible) offer - even if you're interstate... I'm sure freight won't be more than $150 or so.

[slyr33]

Hi, do you have a picture of the rims?

[Peter Wilson]

Here is a picture of all four rims. There was a close-up in my original post but it has disappeared - will repost this one.

SlyR33 - check your PM!

ive sent you a pm. call me when you can cheers Matt

1/ Do these rims fit on the front, without having to 'shave' ANY part of the front calipars?

2/ Would you consider these to be a lightweight rim, or are they at least lighter than the stockies? I have 19's but am starting to do some track work, and these are too heavy and tyres are too expensive to burn.

[MattR]

still interested.

[Peter Wilson]

Al - To put them on the front of my R33, I used thin spacers to avoid having to shave anything off the calipers. I can provide these if required. The rims weigh about the same as stock 16" rims, but of course the 17" tyres would be a bit heavier. I can weigh the two together and get back to you if you want.

Matt - just got your PM - I will call you tomorrow.

[Al]

If spacers had to be used, i would sadly have to pass. Would prefer to buy a rim with the right off-set, as i only intend to use them for track days.

Thanks
