Centerline 5 bolt rims question
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

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!

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
