I'm after some 4" wide C/L's. I want the wheel to sit in as much as possible and have been told that it is the "bubble type i need. Has anyone used these rims or ordered any? As seen on alot of the fast US Cals!

Gotta get these rims if it kills me

Thanks Dan🙂

Looks like about the same as the fronts give or take $10. Sorry I can't be more a precise on the price. Untill I make an order its all a guess but its a good guide. I can tell you that 15x6.5 with beadlocks are $600ea because I got'em

A total of $2,200 does seem steep! Thanks for the help and the advise . I'm in no rush (thank god!) but will look around. I've seen sun aluminium lightweight rims in hot vw's for $110 for 3.5's and $115 for 6's so i'll chase that up first i reckon. Once again thanks for the help!

How do you get $2200
when I went to school $380 x 4 = $1520 but anyway
it was the one I got that are $600ea
your front one are About $380 and so are 15x6

No probs anyway

Thanks , i manged to get some help in US and can get a set of Erco's 3.5's , 6's and all the bolts etc for $700us. The drag racers prefer them as they are lighter than C/L's but not as strong.
That works out to be around $1,000 for a genuine set of Erco's straight from the factory and i'm buying them !!!!!!
Only hassle is tax and if i can get around it somehow.

I was told that if the value ogf goods is below $350 tax is rarely charged. If thats the case would have them individually shipped to work address which wouldn't be much for a lightweight ally wheel and keep each order under$350 each.

Any ideas as i'm having them for sure
