Good luck mate, I've been looking for some 15x10's for ages. Best chance is looking to be buying new.

I'd agree with MNC here. I've been looking for a few months now for some 15x10" rims. I am going to go order new ones next week, sick of waiting for some secondhand 10" rims to come up for sale. Having said that I have a set of 15x8 and a set of 15x7 alloy rims for sale at the moment.

looked at new today. Appears that it will be 4 - 6 weeks to get a set 15x8 with sufficent offset. Also was quoted $108 each including fitting any tyres I had. (seemed very high)

Smurf: what offset ar the 15x8 steels youve got and what do you want for them.

Figured 15x10 would be rare. Looking to put 33x12.5s on my suzuki/hilux toy.

15 x 8s tend to be around the $100 mark and 15 x 10s tend to be around the $150 mark.
there are about 4 different companies that supply 15 x 8s to NZ, and the offsets range from +13 to -28. although I found the -28 ones to be the worst to balance(they actually seemed out of round).
the only ones in Nz that I know who do a 15 x 10 have a offset of -44

hope this helps

Yeah, I got my 15x8 rims from Rob at Naenae Tyre Court (Robo). (04) 5770023. His prices are excellent.

EDIT: Add "... and his service is even better :wink:

Cheers guys :thumleft:

Have sent Robo a PM. let you know how it works out. freight could be an issue though.

Hi meatc, just pm'd ya back.

Just sold my last set of new 15x10's for $130ea, and looks like Stinky's going to get the ones my own tyes are sitting on, still able to get 15x8's tho, there not mangels but they are good rims,-24 or -28, I haven't tried balancing the -28's yet sound like they might be interesting
If anyone is struggling to get 15x8 steel rims PM me and I'll try to help out.
The suppliers told me one price then charged me another the buggers. The new price is $86ea.
I can't wait for Mangels to come back they should be better prices, still a couple of months out tho they say.

We can get a variety of brands of steel rims, mostly used for creating our bead locks. I'll check out prices tomorrow and pm those looking. Could save a bit of freight. Like Robo says, can't wait for the Mangels to come back on line, some of the Chinese sourced rims are currently less than desirable. I'm sure they will have it sorted soon, as they often do.

meatc · Post by **meatc** » Fri Jun 22, 2007 7:37 am

Cheers guys

Im not in a rush. Only got one axle half hung under the chassis at this stage :cry:

(wife and kids want to much time)

Will prob ait till Mangels come in.

Robo let me know if your supplier will play ball witha bulk deal and i'll see if we can generate enoguh interest to make it work.

Problem solved

While visiting my towie/panelbeater/toyota wrecker on a work matter (no i didnt ding my car) i saw he had a wrecked 60 seris cruiser. sitting on shagged tyres on a set of 15x 8s.

A box of Macs Gold later and they are mine

Just gotta go take them off and then a quick sand blast and paint to make them look new again. :cheers: :thumleft:

Cheers for all the replys. Robo cheers for your help. When my budget gets a bit bigger i might see you for some new ones but these will do for now.

The saving i've made here means power steer is now highly likely
