I am after the following:

- a set of 19 x 8.5 (+50, 5 x 100 PCD) Advan Connoisseur 151c wheels in dark gun metallic (preferably new, but will consider very good condition second hand set)
- Tein S-tech springs to suit MY08 Liberty

Cash waiting at the right price.

Any help is much appreicated.

Cheers
Daniel

That's what you think :lol: they will be on my car before you could even get to see them :P hahaha

They are a nice wheel, no one seems to have the correct sizes for the libertys tho.. as there is quite a lot for sale, wrong off sets etc..

They have them in Japan & Jap sites.. but with the yen the way it is.. you won't have much luck getting a set cheap!! :( been there done that!

being a bigger item and well over $3500 u would have to pay GST and duites on them which would bring them up to around $5100. plus undervalueing 5k worth of wheels would offer no insurance cover on them

If u are not in a hurry i can add them to a see shipment which will cut delivery down on them to $4500 a set incl del to the person

Fair point.

However, i have bought a few sets of wheels from the US (multiple sets of 15x15 wheels) and have never paid GST or duties and have had them insured. All it needs is a little co-operation :wink:

Thanks for the offer though.
