I know they made them in our bolt pattern, its just a matter of finding them. Especially as wide as I want the rears

Yeah thats my thing as well, and a good offset as well.

tried to call them up, phone is disconnected. I think they are closed up.

[poomwah]

well, until Patrick stops collecting and starts selling, I guess we're screwed

[yankeyspeed]

that guy had to getting those wheels from somewhere. I have some time.

[yankeyspeed]

WAIT!!!!! I checked the number, I dialed it wrong. I will try tomorrow.

Ok, I had a nice conversation with the guy there. He said they build the wheels there. Also the cost is about 130$ for series 02 in chrome for 6 inch and 150$ for those in 8 inch. The chrome series 20 was about 30$ more. He said the offset would not be a problem. I asked about the cost of some others and they were about the same. Shipping to my house was 120$ for all of them. They could even build series 29 in a 4 lug with chrome at about the same cost. NOW I am excited. I gotta do more Photoshopping.

here is a photoshopped pic of my car with slots on it. The front wheel looks big but its the same size.

i have a set of these. aluminum. small ford bolt pattern with adaptors to swingaxle wide patern. can someone tell me what there worth?

[poomwah]

We could always run salt flat discs

[yankeyspeed]

yeah but they dont look right IMHO on a Baja. I am not sure what I want now. I Photoshopped the series 2 on my car, and they looked ok. I was hoping they would look better. I like the 5 spoke ones as well. I want to go chrome, thats for sure. I will need some time to figure it out.

I want slots, but I don't think I'm going to find them in the size, bolt pattern AND price I need them to be :[

[poomwah]

got my front wheels sorted out.....
Just did some dealint on some slots. 2 15x4.5s and 2 14x6's All 4x130. I'm hoping the 14s will clear my disc brakes, I'd like to use them just because they are a little wider. Then I'll sell the 15's or use one as a spare. If not, I'll put the 15's up front and sell the 14s.
So, now I just need to find a set of 15x10's for the back and I'll be set :]

[yankeyspeed]

I should have a set by the time I get back. I guy I am going over seas with says he has a set with a Chevy bolt pattern.

[yankeyspeed]

Oh I also played with that pic again and tweaked the rims so they look like they are 15s

[poomwah]

got my wheels sorted out... got a pair of 15x10 slots sitting RIGHT here (chevy bolt pattern)!!!!!
also got a tracking number for a pair of 14x6 and a pair of 15x4.5 slots in 4x130 :] Rocco's wheel problems are solved :]

Nice to hear, I think I have a line on a set. If all goes well, I should have a set in a little awhile.
