Will anyone take the mags off me? (SHGOM has the same on his car, they are very nice and open)

I'm looking at getting a car to replace the Mazda 626, and a manual 4wd farm car will suit me perfectly.

I'd love a set of facelift 16" VR-4 mags, but any 16-17" set (NOT CHROME) would be considered as a swap. An advantage of buying an ST-R is that they are the same 5x114.3 pattern as a VR-4.

Uc - as I said in the email, I only want to spend $7k max on a manual STR. That one might be ok because I will be able to sell the mags seperately for a reasonable amount - hopefully! (not $2k though, maybe 1000-1200?)

I might pull the rpf1's of the mazda and put them on the STR!

Gly - just a car to drive in 5 days a week that isn't a complete heap of ****. The VR-4 will be driven, just on the weekends and on trips. I also want to beat 100kw ATW on a 6A13 :)

No offense but those are the 2nd ugliest mags known to man! The only uglier ones are the factory prefacelift enkei 16's.

Gly, I was going to come past tomorrow night, but then I remembered that charmed is on tuesday nights, I'll have to come on wednesday.

I'm still about 50/50 if I get it or not, I would like to keep with the 5 stud's though. It might be a good idea to swap with your mags and tyres *and* hubs too though. hmmm decisions.

Heck I even have my stock vr-4 brakes to get rid of, I could swap the whole lot with you if we need to. Hmmm I really need to think about this.
