Looking for STI Wheels 5x100

Postby ngabdala » Tue Sep 11, 2012 2:56 pm

I am looking to buy 4 STI Wheels in any color. The JDM wheels available for my car can only hold a 7.5 inch tire width. I am looking for 8 inch minimum.

The wheels can be any color, size 17 or 18, 5x100, and capable of holding a minimum of an 8 inch tire width.

Thank you :D

Lol, I haven't even made one on the forums in the states. I figured there was plenty of them

He's asking for STi's and you link Rota's? :banned:

My mate has some JDM 18 x 8 +48 STi rims. They need some minor gutter repairs and then paint. This can be professionally done with your specified color choice for $2500 inc courier. Where are you located?

I'm in the U.S.

I'm looking to find a better deal. That's expensive and they
need work

I agree that it is fairly expensive, however...

Unfortunately for us things tend to cost more here.

Also, that size is very rare here as we didn't get the 8" size on the Australian model.

There is another set here (5x 7.5") for the same price viewtopic.php?f=3&t=10869

Occasionally we get second hand ones on here for less than 2000 but they probably will also be marked, they get bought almost instantly, and they are almost always 7.5".

I do understand we are lucky to have cheaper prices in the USA.

On japanparts.com the brand new STI wheels are about $520 for an 18x7.5 +48mm. The 17" is $460.

I just figured there may be another STI wheel with the 18x8+ or 17x8+ in Australia based on an Australian forum members suggestion on ft86club.com.

I figure I have nothing to lose in searching outside the US.

I would chase up the local importers mate. The states get pretty good deals.

2500 is expensive anywhere.

They come up time to time with rubber under 2000.

But shipping to usa would be the killer.

Meh, Theyre over 2500 new and these would be as new in a custom color.

2000 for the standard 7.5 +55 with s/h rubber and guttermarks also.....

There's a set of Prova Ed Enkei RS+M going in the USA, they're BNIB and a bargain if you're in the lower 48...

Only half an inch wider than what you're after for more WIN!

I was buying these but shipping was too $$$$...
