Ali rims 15x6?

[Heath]

okay got some ali rims, were told they were 15x 7 inch but have taken the tyres off two of them and they look to be only 6 inch. The space where the beads sit is 150mm (see picture) does that mean they are 15x6 or is it the outer dimensions that are used?



Checked the back space measurements and they look to be a positve offset of approx 24mm (rim sits further in)

This looks to be too small an off set (I wanted around -10mm offset and 7" wide) for what I wanted so I will be getting rid of them (bugger). Anyone want to make me an offer for 4 of them (pic below). They need a tidy up but may be okay for someone elses project. The were fitted to a LWB vitara when I got them. Nice and light (which is why I got them).

how much did you pay? is that how much you want back for them?

[Heath]

Paid $100 and will take that so I break even (except for the gas I guess). They have the same backspacing as the std rims (so I am informed from outerlimits data - see your thread on the jeep wheels)

Guess the search goes on for me. Maybe I will just get steelies and forget about it for now.

do you know how much shipping will be?

[Heath]

Pass. You might be able to find someone from here to drive them south (any trials on soon) or the chap Gazza sorted (?) to take stuff from Auck to Welly and back.

are you coming down for the wellington trial??

[Heath]

Nah, Busy up here with shit around the house (the wife has me on a short rein because of the toy - I had to bargain with her for spending money and she drives a hard bargain) but if anyone up this way(Auckland) is going and they have room (and you want them) I can drop them off for a bit of gas money.

Hey Heath

Ive got a set of 4 alloy Vitara rims sitting around the back of the shed.
Ill dig them out tomorrow and get some more info, they came with my 413 but are completely wrong for it.
Your welcome to them, if they are of use to you.

[Heath]

Thanks UBZ

Always interested in bargains (my wife seems to like me getting bargains too although not to many). I won't take them off your hands for nothing though if they are what I would like. They have got to be worth something to you (even a few cold ones at the least). PM any details you have (pics would be good also).

Cheers,

Heath

Rims are 6JJx15 OFFSET +22
15x6 similar to the one in your pic

I can take some more dimensions and pics if you like?

[Heath]

Bugger, I was after 7 or 8 inch wide ali rims with a 0 to -20 offset. I intend to run 31 inch tyres with internal beadlocks so need something a little wider.

Thanks for the offer, maybe someone else here could use them. Back to the search I guess.
