Sorry if this drags on!!

Up for sale today was my key to the very unique look i was aiming for with my beloved Matte White Supra

A set of custom Chartreuse Yellow Work Meisters S1, all wrapped up in Kuhmo KU36 semi slicks

They were originally bought in average condition, but once i decided on the look i was after, they were sent off to Import Monster to get the royal treatment done.

It took about 5 months total to get the finished product, as new outers (painted dish) were sourced and machined to bold up to the centers and the inner section of the wheels

Dimensions of the rims are as follows:

Fronts

18"x10.5", offset is unknown

KU36's have roughly 70% tread left

Rears

18"x12", offset is also unknown

KU36's have roughly 10% left (only put these on to get from a to b, but the wheels did not fit)

One of the front wheels has a small section of paint chipped off due to my careless brother shifting them about :@

Ill stress it now, if you plan on fitting these to a stock bodied supra, i highly suggest you get yourself either a slight wide body or over fenders of some sort for the rear

When i test fitted them to my supra (stock guards) the fronts seemed fine, but the rears were my problem

In my opinion these are as awesome as f**k. (pardon the french)

I also highly advise test fitting before purchase, which can be arranged with me :)

Any interstate buyers, unless you are prepared to make your car fit the wheels, there is not much i can do in terms of test fitments :P

These wheels cost me a total of 5.7k in the end (purchasing, refurbishment, paint, assembly and tyres)

They have not been used since being assembled apart from two wheels being test fitted to my supra

I am looking for $5,000 as they are

It may seem like a lot to most people, but consider this

as far as i know, you can only purchase new Meisters with a maximum of around 10.5-11"? (correct me if i am wrong! :P)

and again as far as i know, they will cost a fraction over $4,000 for a set without tyres

These are very different and again have freshly been refurbished and never used

Words nor pictures cannot even begin to explain how damn sweet they look in the sun light.. you really have to see them in the flesh!

ill let the pictures do the talking

Reason for sale, my Supra will be sold soon to make room for a Stagea, and these are way too clean to use on my z20 drifter, so they must go!

I can be contacted on 0423 985 five seven one, and am located in VIC (Caroline Springs)

any questions, ill so my best to answer! these will be advertised on few forums so it will be first in, best dressed!

Cheers

Ken

cheers chris :)

ill find out both tyre sizes when i get back home later this arvo relyt

I think you will have better luck selling the wheels if you measure the offset with a ruler even if it is approximate it will only be like 1-2mm error

there are guides on how to do it all over the internet

also what are the disk spec on the faces, big brake clearance or pretty low disk?

iirc Meisters are available up to 18"x15" size from the Work site

just did a quick google search about diy offset measurement, ill have a crack at it tonight

What would you be referring to when you say 'disc spec on the faces'? i wouldn't have a clue :P

In regards to BBC, i am not entirely sure,

when i originally purchased the Meisters in their original form, they came off an RZ supra with big brakes, considering the facing is still the same id say it should still clear supra big brakes,

But this of course is SAU, so that's pretty much useless :P

Id be more than happy to test fit to any skylines, s15's and etc with big brakes! It would be helpful to know if they would clear for you guys or not :)

Cheers

Ken

also ill remove the section about the new work wheels, as i have been mistake :P

Cheers Roman!

these are mental! make ur car fit them, they will look awsome! tried getting my wheels painted in same vibrance but orange and the shop couldnt do it :/

that was the plan! but a m35 stagea is such a better option for me :P so the supras going!

Its very very tricky with colours as vibrant as these to do it, ill be doing the same theme hopefully to my z20 and my stagea when it eventually arrives!! :P

For some reason, i am un able to edit the first post, so ill put the offsets and tyre sizes here

If a mod is reading this, could you please edit the topic for me?

anyway they are as follows

FRONTS, -27 offset

TYRES, 235/40ZR18 95W

REARS, 0 offset

TYRES, 265/35ZR18 97W

Thanks guys!

Cheers

Ken

ah whoops! yes +27, pressed the wrong button

Callan, the wheels have been re-furbished and widened, so offsets have changed

Price Drop

4,800

If they have been widened and all that jazz, whoevers done the work should know what the offsets are. It would help with your sale.

Just offering my Personal experience here. Those fronts look to be something like 9.5 +24, and if it clear Supra big brakes, it will clear GTR/S15/[insert datsun] big brakes, and 6 Piston Alcon/Grex calipers, as Supra brakes are actually wider than them.

This is with 19 x 9.5 +20

The rears, these were my 19 x 11 +18 SSR on my Supra...which look ssimilar to the fitment on your Meisters. Hope that helps man.

damn ive always been jealous of your gorilla :P

thank you though!

anyway, yeah it is a bit of a pain not having specific offsets, but i am doing what i can, the offsets i measured are a few posts up anyway.. shame i cant modify the first post

but anyway test fitment is something i definitely suggest to any potential buyers as previously mentioned

Cheers

Ken

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
