Ghettobird iceton1975;34361 wroteonly me and you, we need more interest, to get a good deal Is there anything up on TB or VS?
Ghettobird Lets get these things happening! You really think the 18's are the way to go? 18's seem a bit big on the car to me, maybe Im looking at the wrong pictures?
Vee_Que For RWD Volvo's 17's are a good compromise for tyre sizes and ride quality, ideally 17x8 all around, 18's look too big and they don't have enough rubber to suit the look of the car, plus they are more likely to break too.
Ghettobird Posted up on TB under for sale - Group-buys also Any Group-buys for swaybars and other blue bits on the horizon?
familyman I still can't decide if I want Galaxy, Polaris, or... Does anyone know what the wheels are, on the red 740 (just above the photo of the jack) on this page? http://forums.turbobricks.com/showthread.php?t=56763&page=250 They're like Polaris, but with thinner spokes. More like Galaxy spokes, but only five of them!?
Ghettobird What red 740? Theres over 167 pages on that thread You might mean MK18's This group buy fell through, I sourced a set for myself and 2 others who were prepared to come up with the $$$
familyman Hm... When I click the url I pasted, it takes me to the right page (a little less than halfway down). Oh well. Yes, I think that's them, thanks. So did buy from the source you originally intended to get the group buy from? Or you found originals somewhere else?
Ghettobird No originals, Direct from Eiker for big $$$ And even more $$$ now that the AUD is worth fk all
familyman Oh ok. I emailed them actually. Translated it online and everything. But their reply was so vague, I didn't know if they were quoting 5 rims like I'd asked - or 4, or ONE - nor if they'd included the shipping. (I believe I asked for a quote for Galaxy wheels.) I emailed a second time and asked them to clarify, then a third time, but never heard from them either time.
familyman Actually, no... I think it was *E1s* only I asked Eiker for a quote on. I must have also asked a Volvo branch in the USA for the Galaxy quote. Because I wanted to see what the price difference was. But as I said, I got not joy from Eiker. Say, if you don't mind (PM me if you would consider it, but don't want to post public) - would you mind telling me what you paid, for how many wheels - and approx. when it was? Maybe that way I could look up the historical exchange rate, then compare the two different styles using today's exchange rate.
