Oaky Doaky.

I'm toying with the idea of getting some jap style 4 spoke alloys. However I haven't got a clue where to get them. Has anyone got any ideas where I can obtain those lush wheels. For anyone who hasn't gotta clue what they look like, here's a piccie of some.

turtle trading is a jap company that deals with classic mini parts, be warned the site will needed to be translated though and google translator does a rubbish job of it :thumbsup:

there is also a topic floating around somewhere where we actually figured out what those wheels in that picture were.
however im to lazy to search for the thing :)

As said above, they are SSR FLII rims from Japan. They sell it in 10x6, 10x6.5 and 10x7 with different offsets available. I got a set for my Mini :thumbsup:

Around $350 according to the site that was posted before.

Then you need tyres, locking nuts, balancing etcetc at a guess.
