Interested in a set of four 3.0R-B 18" wheels? :)

As an option, I mean, I'm after $400 for the full set and a replacement wheel might cost that much... plus it's in Melbourne too...

Yeah, I cracked one hitting a kerb on my old car :oops: so I know the pain of having three wheels.

Don't know about the 2.5i, but the GT came with a full-size spare...

Seriously contemplate buying the set of four 18" 3RB wheels I have... I'm only after $400 for it, with tyres, so you will have three full-sized spares :)

Oh possibly, have you got heritage or safety pack?? Funny that they would give you a dinky wheel for 'safety pack'
