WTB: V6 Sport Standard Alloy - 4 stud

[Spirit]

Anyone got one (or a set) for sale. Must be in very good / excellent condition......badly kerbed one of mine tonight /Grrr

[Kieran]

They come up on Ebay every so often Pete, however it's well known that the sport alloys are made of chocolate and bend, buckle and go off balance very easily - Might be worth looking out for a cheap set of spare alloys and transfering your tyres - Could work out cheaper long term?

[ANTHONY]

i think paul beazer had some

[Spirit]

Yeah, I was aware of their "fragility" but thought I would prove it to myself tonight.....what a knob I am !

I would like to keep the car standard.....yes I have done feck all to this one....so a single/set of standards would be good. However, if none appear then my plan B is just to buy another set of new alloys/tyres when the tyres need replacing as there are so many cheap deals around nowadays

[Danj]

There is an Ebay auction running for just the one at the moment i think its in the wheel and tyre section - cant remember how much it is though

[Spirit]

Yeah, saw one last night.....it was already at £59 and was quite marked up !

[ANTHONY]

i know you dont wanna here this but i did have a brand spanking new one ....but i sold it with the car last year when i had my sport

[White Lightning]

That's a bummer mate :(

Indeed, I was trying to do a quick 3 point turn and misjudged it.......stupid really.....it's an age thing you know /Grrr

If you decide you want to go for the one on eBay then I have a mate you lives in Rickmansworth who could pick it up for you ... and then you could collect it from here.

Also, have you thought about getting a price from Mitsi and/or Camskill .... ? Probably expensive, but you never know.

[Spirit]

Thanks mate, but I won't be getting the one on eBay.

I was surprised a few years ago after I took a chunk out of a Vauxhall alloy wheel, that when I went to the main dealer to see what ridiculous price they'd charge, the price was actually very reasonable! And in stock!

[Spirit]

Worth I shot I guess, can you do me a favour Wayne and check out a price with them next week - cheers

[g6acb]

I got a quote from Mitsu for a single wheel at the end of last year for a claim against the Highways Department - I don't have it to hand but from memory it was about 160 squids

I took the money to a refurbisher who fixed it up for 40 + vat

[Spirit]

Ok, cheers mate :2thumbsup

[White Lightning]

Pete - PM me your chassis number and I will pull the part number and get a price from Mitsi and Camskill for you ...

[Paul Beazer]

Pete i have a set of 4 still going. I think 2 are out of whack, but the other 2 may be ok.
Nick Mann may be able to remember?

[Paul Beazer]

Pete, apparently 2 are ok and 2 are bent. No idea which ones are which tho.

[White Lightning]

Paul - Pete is sunning himself in Spain this week along with Mr Vee so I expect he will be in touch some time around/after next weekend.
