17x9J et12 Rims

Post by NafemanNathan » Sun Dec 23, 2012 10:29 pm

I'm not really expecting anyone to have any, just more asking if you could keep your eyes open for me :)

I'm after a set of 17x9J rims with an offset of et12 give or take several mm. Maybe even 9.5J if the offset is right. In either 4x114.3 bolt pattern or 5x114.3 as I'm considering a 5 bolt hub conversion knowing there are more options.

Cheers ;-)

is nearl imposible mate

More lucky if you go conversione for 5x114
ludes are ment to be driven, not wanking around on a stand like a Civic.

I can get them from the States, but just thinking there's a slim chance someone might have a set whilst I'm saving up for the shipping :lol:

Yer 4 studs are very hard to find but they are there and mostly in Mcdonalds land.
Iv got to ship mine from over there too unless a set appears on egay etc. but not as an extreme offset as you.

Yeah there was a set of exactly what I'm after on ebay the other day, but they went for £495, were second hand, and weren't the colour I wanted, so I would have had to slap another £200 on top for powder-coating. Therefore would have worked out pretty much the same price as a brand new set in the colour I want from the States.

Hi bud. Thanks for the thought, but with the size and offset I'm looking for it should allow the rims to protrude about 60-65mm from the arches.

Et45 on a 9" is perfectly flush with arches as that's my goal.. So it will be more like 30mm protrusion on et15. :ugeek:
