I need 4 x 15" rims - 2 off 4.5" wide and 2 off 5.5" wide.

I am going to paint them so chrome doesn't need to good or can be painted.

Ken

Will consider interstate purchase!

Mangle no longer make the rims you are looking for.... But I think there is another company producing a rim that is very similar.... I have no idea if anyone is importing them at this time....🙁

Best of luck with your search...

FUCH your early!

Yeah they are the Mangle copies I was talking about.... You'd be up for close to $500 plus shipping for a set of rims...

Managed to find 4 off 15 x 4.5 - 356 Porsche rims locally in Perth. There are two sets still lurking around Melbourne with tyres that I passed on.

Hi, Im after a set of Mangels as well, 4 stud and doesn't matter if it's polished or not. Can anyone help? I'll be more than happy to pay for the freight too, no matter where in Australia you are!
