Re: Cheapest way to import wheels from USA
I can believe that.
Re: Cheapest way to import wheels from USA
Was that based on maturity or actual age?

Re: Cheapest way to import wheels from USA
They look spot-on whitewun. What size wheels and tires?

Re: Cheapest way to import wheels from USA
Wheels are 16" x 8" Performance mini lites.
even though the factory has closed down - new wheels can still be obtained.
check out Gumtree / wheels / south australia/ marion area.
Tyres are Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus ( 245 / 50 / 16 )
I have been told that this specific tyre is not available in Aust
I purchased these from the Tyre Rack in the US and had them loaded into the car and shipped over - this was when the aussie dollar was $1.10 not .73
it is a good handling package all around
cheers

Re: Cheapest way to import wheels from USA
Looks very nice. A real reminder of the TA cars - it has that look.
I will someday think of something clever to say.
Re: Cheapest way to import wheels from USA
Thanks guys - the T/A look is what I am chasing
If you really want some very very nice wheels check out
CCW wheels web site
2 and 3 piece rims - all diameters, rim widths and offsets
I can vouch for the quality as my pony had them fitted when I imported it.
reason I removed them - 17" x 9" fronts and 17" x 10" rears
caused all sorts of engineering issues.
Be warned they are not cheap - around the A$1000 per rim

Looks great whitewun.
I haven't been a huge fan of the smaller diameter mini lites, but they do look good in 16"!

Re: Cheapest way to import wheels from USA
Just had another look at the pics now I'm back at my PC. I tell you that is one of the best looking wheel/tyre combo's I've seen... so perfect for the car and the look you want. Your research and effort to get it right has really paid off. Well done.whitewun wrote:Wheels are 16" x 8" Performance mini lites.

Re: Cheapest way to import wheels from USA
Thanks for that. I can take the credit for the wheels based on old memories of the Coke mustang. The tyres were picked based on the size ( rolling diameter etc ) and value for money.
The credit for the stance belongs to Nuts - he did all the work on my car to get it passed engineering - including springs etc
