cheap wheels, parts etc

Post by manofwood »

I guy i met today imports new and used wheels and tyres from japan at really low prices, i got a set of rays engineering/ volk eurostars 17'' for $850 when retail is between $3000 and $4000 new, plus i'm getting brand new falken azenis tyres for $260 each (top of the line) when they go for nearly $400, he seems to be just starting his business so grab them while theyre hot! the name is tyre king, they are located at 178 Hume Hwy Lansvale, and contact number is 0400156818. his name is Sam. he will ship if you're interstate as well.
Also, another guy has a business called prestige motorsport, and he told me they are starting to specialise with FTO standard parts and panels, i'm not too sure about aftermarket though. their number is 9726 2525 and they are located at 18-20 hollywood dr lansvale.

Be careful ... I have seen some fake Rays hit the market too ... So check all the tags on them ... I think there should even be embossed logo's on them ...

he just orders good stuff as he goes, spur of the moment guy i think. if you want something in particular, just ring him up, he should be able to find what you want. he's the owner of that blue widebody celsior with the quad 4'' cannons some of you would have seen at an autosalon. he's easygoing, even spun up my new wheels individually on a balancer to show they werent buckled or warped without a hassle

Also keep an eye on Ebay for Buddy Clubs, they come up in Mitsi sizes with reasonable regularity. Last time they came up in 17's with a 35 offset, they were going for $200 a wheel brand new (gen too)
