They're ratty. Chrome lip and gold spokes. Plenty of gutter rash and they don't seal to the tire without tubes so tubes are included in the sale. Tires aren't included. 16", I'm not sure exactly how wide they are but I do know they're too wide to keep driving with a 3" beam. The measuring tape read 16cm which is 6.3 inches which seems odd to me (maybe I'm not measuring correctly). They're still on the car and I'm planning on going back to steelies so the buyer will have to wait until I've swapped them over.

$350 pick up from Richmond

I'm possibly looking for 2 widened steelies for the rear so let me know of any leads.

U would need to run 135 tyres on the front to make that all work, looks like u have some big rubber under there hence the rubbing

I've got 145s on the front so they're not too much bigger than a 135. I'm wanting a change anyway.

Sorry, Richmond Vic. I'm not sure what the 'f' and 'r' mean in regards to the wheel size. Where in Melb are you? I just looked up how to correctly measure a rim, I measured from lip to lip, not bead to bead so they might actually be 15". Still interested?

pod i`ve got to finish this thing one day

Hi rowan, Mike binned his triumph daytona on the way to work last wedsnesday & has been laidup since & asked me to apoligise for incinveniencing you regarding the wheels. At this point he'll have to let em go as he won't be doing anything to physical for a little bit. I think its probably unwise of me to commit him to anything as we'll have to revise all our finances for the short term for a little while. regards Donna.

Hi Donna. Thanks for the reply. That's terrible. Hope He's okay. It did seem odd not to hear from him, I thought something must have happened. Let him know I'm in no rush to sell the rims and can wait until he feels better. No rush though of course.

Cheers, Rowan
