Is it possible to get these in anthracite?

Either way if they're <1000 put me down with Proxies.

Should do but will need to check as they have to get over your pots - remind us what ET they need again - something like ET53 is required I think for Sti7/8 ? But don't take my word on it. ET46 for my Sti5 4 pots I think ?? PALATINE do you know m8

Yes they do fit the STi 7/8

They are 18 X 8 with an ET48 offset IIRC.

I bought them for my 01 WRX with the view to taking them with me to an STi 8/9

Nathan..

Disclaimer.

I haven't tried them on an STi but this is info from Pete Croney at SS and Trouser at TSL. So don't sue me if they don't

Palatine, if what you said is true the wheels would cost £996 without tyres or between £1100-1200 with tyres??

MR MAJ
Exactly how much is not yet determind BUT if people want to get there own tyres then I'll see how much I can just buy the wheels at but it usually work out cheaper to get both at once.

If a price reduction of possably £350ish is not to your liking then get them some where else.

I'm doing me best mate

Question

Guys and Gals - just checked out www.revolution.eu.com (in Gateshead)- they are advertising these wheels at £1209 plus delivery, including hankook tyres fitted balanced etc and locking nuts - could be good ammo for driving prices down???

Doaney - if you guys are wanting locking wheel nuts and Hankook tyres instead of \Toyo Proxes like we discussed, I'll be able to do them for about £50 less than I quoted. REMEBER THIS, tyre prices are changing according to stock levels - I cannot do this for ever!

Im 99% sure these can be bought through Speedline directly(appologies if this is who your dealing with) - might be worth a bell.

I checked the Speedline website - they don't deal direct as far as I can see, only through their dealer network .... BTTT!!

hi guy's
It turns out that after all this the price from revolution is just about the best anyway I could maybe get them for about £15 cheaper but I'm not laying out £6000 to save £75 between 5 people

Sorry to have wasted all your time but at least we found the cheapest place for these wheels!http://www.revolution.eu.com


Cheers

Ira

Question

Ira,

Perhaps we could contact Revolution and see if they will give us a discount for a group buy?

Cheers

Greg

Update:- I've contacted Revolution via the web site and asked the question - will post again when they reply.... fingers crossed!!

ADP - thanks for the info - I'll give them a bell tomorrow. Their website doesn't give any details for dealing direct, only a dealer network! Fingers crossed

Hi greg I think the deal you got from manchester is the best vfm by miles ask them how much stock they have and if they can do more sets

I think none of the firms offering these deals in the £1200 range are going to drop there price any more!
I may be wrong but I don't think so

Hi All,

ADP was spot on - Speedline will deal directly! They don't do wheel/tyre packages but want to know numbers and colours before they will give me a price. Would all those interested please reply to my e-mail addy asap and tell me which wheels you want, I can then get back to Speedline and we'll see what the price is like compared to other deals.

Cheers

Greg
