Mag Wheels

[Malcolm Frew]

Wanted 6*13" Tasman Mags, or similar to suit FC.  Must be good condition.

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.

[Malcolm Frew]

I've already checked the price from there and nearly fell over.  I'll keep trying.

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  :-/

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.

Just curious Malcolm, how much were they charging for the Tasmans? and were they good second-hand, re-furbed or other?

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

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.
