Title: Mag Wheels Post by: Malcolm Frew on August 16, 2004, 06:20:30 AM Wanted 6*13" Tasman Mags, or similar to suit FC. Must be good condition.
Title: Re: Mag Wheels Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on August 16, 2004, 08:15:42 PM Good Luck, it took ages for me to get a set and they are not even matched (13s and 14s). Parts Peddler (or is it Just Parts) has a two-page ad by a mag warehouse (Melb I think) who advertise Tasmans from time to time.
Title: Re: Mag Wheels Post by: Malcolm Frew on August 18, 2004, 07:30:27 AM I've already checked the price from there and nearly fell over. I'll keep trying.
Title: Re: Mag Wheels Post by: The_Doctor on August 18, 2004, 11:25:37 AM go for the something similar if you can..early Tasman mags had a tendency for the steel rims to separate from the alloy centers made even more of a problem with age and fatigue..i had heard once this brand of mag wheel won't pass rwc but i can't vouch if that part is true..just be aware of Tasmans is all :-/
Title: Re: Mag Wheels Post by: FATBOY on August 18, 2004, 12:01:26 PM a mate of mine is buying an fj with tasmans on it and wants to sell them the front s are 13 *6 rears are about14*7 any questions you can ring me on 0414712441
cheers fatboy Title: Re: Mag Wheels Post by: peterwmh on August 19, 2004, 03:05:37 AM I have one 14x7 wheel, similar to a Dragway 5 spoke pattern but it's made by Sampson Engineering in SA and is all alloy. If anyone is interested, it's early Holden pattern and is in very good nick, even has a centre cap!! Would make a good spare! I have a good 225/65/14 tyre (Goodyear) with 70% tread to suit also. Email peteramanda@iprimus.com.au to discuss further. These can be posted. Can supply a photo too.

Title: Re: Mag Wheels Post by: TAM4740 on August 26, 2004, 08:50:40 AM I can get a set of 6"x14" challengers (which are a globe look alike) with correct offsets for fc. They are polished and reco'd at $600 a set. Is this good or bad? On behalf of Malcolm Frew
Title: Re: Mag Wheels Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on August 26, 2004, 09:39:35 AM I shelled out $200 for a set of 4 ROH 13x6 "Splat" Type mags (with 2 good tyres), then another $200 to get them polished, if that's any help.
