Title: New 13" Wheels Post by: plumer46 on October 09, 2007, 07:34:55 PM G'Day all,
I went to my local tyre company last week to get the tyres off my old and damaged FE rims, the owner said "why are you trying to sandblast and repair these when I can get you new rims for $55 each" Well I nearly fell over, and said "you beauty can you order in 5" Tyres Cheap in Windsor NSW is the company, but I am sure other companies can do the same. I picked them up today and will get them into colour with the rest of the Ute very soon. Regards John G ;) Title: Re: New 13" Wheels Post by: Papa Smurf on October 09, 2007, 08:08:43 PM Think you'll find these are trailer wheels - but they may not have the 'indents' on the 3 raised area's for the hubcaps to snap into - which is ok if you don't use hubcaps.

I'll be kicking myself if there not as i just ordered my new 13x10's and they were ALOT more expensive then $55 :( Title: Re: New 13" Wheels Post by: plumer46 on October 11, 2007, 04:37:15 PM Hi Grandmasterb
Yes Lizard is right, I am thinking about TIG welding a spot that will catch the rim, or I may set in a lathe and cut a groove in them, or get Morton and May in Warwick Farm to make them at $185 each. What do you think. Regards John G ??? |
