Hi Gregg

Yes it's £760 for the alloys with 225/40/18's Toyo T1-R's fitted.
(nuts and locks included)
I'll confirm and get back to you on delivery cost.

The tyres are T1-R oppossed the the earlier T1-S
Is this for a new age or a classic ?

It may be on Monday now as it's the weekend but I'll drop Julian an e-mail as we speak.

Simon

If you check out the link look at the size of the alloy... that one your looking at is 15 x 6.5 ......... maybe that's where the confusion is ?

Just to say I ordered some 18" Rota Tramac2/GTA in Steel Grey and they look great! The finish is excellent. I also liked the chrome valve caps that came with them.

hi
simon thanks for the info, cant get hold of Julian today, but just spoke to his dad really nice chap. unfortunatley he was not able to help on the offset question.

I am desperate to get an order in, and am really swayed towards the subzero or circuit 10 in gunmetal with chrome rim.

The problem I have is "desperation" I really do need some wheels its not possible to tell how long it will take to get 10 names on the list, and I dont want to be the one to put my name down and then pull out because i sourced some from some where else.

I will keep my eye on this thread regularly and see where we are at and were i am with getting some

Briliant group buy mate and the prices realy are good brake it down into price per rim for 18's and is well darn good

Well done mate.

I've just left a message on the answer phone it say's they should be back around 2pm.

How long have you got to go before you need them Mick ?
I wish I could be more accurate with a time scale but as you can see there is no way of knowing.... I think you can appreciate that.

I would be interested in a set of Tarmac 2's in steel grey. But I would only want 17" wheels, not the 18" that are currently being talked about.

Also, I would prefer the Goodyear GSD3 tyres.

Any chance that this could be worked into the group buy somehow?

Yes Luminous we have 17's added to the GB the price is as follows:

17's with Toyo 215/45/17 T1R - £640
thats with wheels at £350 and tyres at cost.

On a personal note that is the best I can get Julian down to....
The best deals to be had this time around are on 18's without a doubt but the
17's are still a reasonable price and the quality speaks for itself with the Rota's.

I've copied that from the main thread.

I've got to talk with Julian on Monday so I'll ask him that for you Lumi as it is not to techinical

For the AP sixpots, we would need really to have AP's profile partern (usually a cardboard templete you can hold against the rear of the wheel).

Thats the only way we will know for sure.

I'm going to say I hope that helps, Have you got the template ?

Simon




I've asked this on NASIOC now to see if our friends from over the pond can help us out.

Thanks Very kind of you. My original wheels are in a terrible condition, and I have little faith in the tyres. I really like the performance of the Goodyear's in the wet

(need to try and ensure that the GSD3's come in their higher XL load spec as people here have seen several of them crack )

Hi baddermans You will see that the Formula Mesh is a new age only wheel but as far as I am aware the rest of the designs will fit new age also, for specific fitment and offset questions I would prefer if you gave Julian a call and discussed it directly as I do not want to get into the techinical side of things, it's quite a complex subject and it needs to be correct....

Here are the contact details for you

http://www.rarerims.co.uk/

01363 777007

info@rarerims.co.uk

Just let Julian know it is in relation to the possible group buy
( 10 names needed )

Hope that ok

Simon

Hi Matt,

It can go over 10 Matt.... that is just the start figure for the group buy to be active, if you want to join but can't purchase until next month that's fine, no worries with that what so ever

I don't know for sure they may do... you can buy sticky back one's off e-bay if you wanted to cover them I suppose.
