OBO Posted November 18, 2023 Posted November 18, 2023 Fancy a change of wheels from my Team Dynamics 5 spoke to some Pro Race. I have winter tyres but if there are tyres on yours and you fancy selling just give me a shout. I'm near Tamworth if that helps and don't mind a 70 mile or so trip. I really fancy 8 Spoke Superlight deep dish but no one seems to do them in an offset that suits my SEIW. Unless you know better. Toybox has them for £220 each but too much for my shallow pockets. Thanks all. OBO Russell 1

Thanks all. OBO Russell Hi Russell, I’m in same position. I wanted some minilites (black with Silver rim) for my SEight but can’t find 7” x 15” with ET41 (ET35 as min) ☹️ - I’m probably gonna go with Team D - Pro Race 1.2 with Demon Tweeks offering + 50% duscount. I really like Andrew’s Minilites at TB but 8” & ET23 won’t work for me. Pls let me know if you find any & which you go for. 👍
OBO Posted November 19, 2023 Author Posted November 19, 2023 I will. minilites look great for me. Especially the deep dish. Was hoping @Toybox Specialist Cars would be having a Black Friday sale as I’m only up the road from them. OBO 1

OBO Posted November 20, 2023 Author Posted November 20, 2023 Just had a look on the back of my wheels and it says 7 X 15 e35 So I presume they are ET35 and if that's so maybe these will fit/

OBO Posted November 20, 2023 Author Posted November 20, 2023 Cheers for that Phil. I will measure them tomorrow. They are all off the car just now so will post my results. Russell.
OBO Posted November 21, 2023 Author Posted November 21, 2023 Physically measured and they are +35. Those Rotas are looking good to me now.
OBO Posted November 22, 2023 Author Posted November 22, 2023 All sorted now. Went for some used Prorace 1.2 in the end 15".

OBO Posted November 23, 2023 Author Posted November 23, 2023 Will do and thank you. They are in for powder coating at the moment and hope to have them back for Saturday. Russell. 1
OBO Posted November 27, 2023 Author Posted November 27, 2023 As promised @RickRack Not everyone’s cup of tea regarding the colour but I didn’t want silver or black wheels. I like them anyway 🤪 Black bolts needed I reckon. 5

That’s why I wanted Minilites with black centre & diamond cut alloy rim to break up the full black wheels. But think I’m going for the Pro-Race 1.2’s gloss black on my yellow SEight with a change to black cycles, windscreen & roll-bar. Hope we meet up in the new year to have a catch up. 🙏👍 1
