VX SS Rims swap for 15" or why
P.S Im in Perth

[Mark]

huh??..ur swapping ur rims for 15's??

[hispeedvp]

yeah as long as the are 8" wide or so, the lower the profile the rougher the ride plus these tyres arer $290.00 Each, $99.00 for cheap shit

they still have to look nice though VR Calais rims are nice but how wide are they??

[Mark]

to be honest ur gonna be stretching to find a 15 inch rim thats 8 inchs wide.. most 17's are only 7 inches.. when u get to 18-19s is when the majority is 8 inches wide

[hispeedvp]

well they dont have to be exactly 8" wide, i just want something with a higher profile thats still gonna grip like hell and looks good, however i will be upgrading my brakes to a 290mm or 300mm rotor and want to make sure watever i get will work with that. hmmm

[Mark]

how wide do u wana go with the tyres on there?? 225?? 235??

[hispeedvp]

my 235's stick nice but still let me slide when i want, but they're 45's and are a bit of a rough ride, would have to dumby fit a 225 to see what they're like

[digitok]

You can fit 225/65s to a 15" wheel, most have 205s though, but 225 (8" wide) tyres will fit and I'm pretty sure they grip and handle better aswell..

So yeh you can still have wide tyres on a 7" wheel.

Wanna swap for some pursuits? hahaha

Cheers

[hispeedvp]

yeah!! (with 20 brand new tyres lol)

[Mark]

haha i got 8 pursuits sittin in the shed.. but not 20 new wheels lol!!

[hispeedvp]

hmmm? what are the tyres like on the persutes? no swap sorry, but i might buy them if you wonna sell?

[Mark]

bald i use them as old burnout rims... i think only 4 have tyres on em.. ill have to go pick up the other 4 from a mate.. they wont have tyres on em

[hispeedvp]

sorry not interested lol, if you had 8 descent rims(persuits) with good tyres i would prob be interested believe it or not

[MY_95_VS]

Hi, I have 5 VS Berlina (VR Calais) rims up for sale... But, if you want to swap, ur more than welcome (I would also consider a cash adjustment...)
4 of them are in very near to mint condition and one (spare) has very slight gutter rash... Two have good tyre rubber, two are not that good (i.e need replacing soon) and the spare is drivable. One tyre needs a puncture repair due to some twat spiking me!!!

PM if interested mate... I love VX SS rims!!!

[raZel]

Hey mate, i have these rims on my car, 5 good tyes, 5 near perfect rims no major damage! they are still in bloody good condition! i would be interested in giving you them and some money for a sway for your rims!

[raZel]

i mean for a 'swap' for your rims , not a 'sway' LOL

[hispeedvp]

im in W.A though however they are the kind of rims im after, would like to swap with someone local if i can unless you wonna drive to Perth

[chunderlicious]

vpbeast how much do pursuits go for, im lookin at a set for burnout wheels, and just rotting round in the backyard and stuff, but i live in queensland, itll cost too much to get em here.

cheers

[raZel]

Well. we can organise for them to be taken up there.....i wuld be more than happy to pay for your postage and mine if it was for a straight swap

[hispeedvp]

whats the tread like, i dunno if if its gonna be worth it for both of us, you could probbaly find something on e-bay comparable for less than postage? i duno

[raZel]

the tread on the front is around 90% on the back about 70%.... wat would the cost be like to get them over there do you rekon?

[hispeedvp]

have no idea, i dont know if it would be worth it, and wouldnt wantr them to go missing in transet either
