 17' Remotec Mags, Customised for Ta/Ra23 Celica
|
Fri, 20 August 2004 04:19
|
 |
I have a set(4), of 17 Remotec inch Mags, in fantastic condition for sale. The mags are alloy and are in immaculate condition, no dints or scratches.
They have been customised to fit any RA/TA23 Celica. They also come with customised lock nuts for Centre covers, all are in immaculate condition.
They've been sitting inside my home for over 12mths, and the misses says they have to go, as i sold my Cel 12mths ago. I had only ever had them on my Cel for approx 4mths.
Fronts are are wrapped in 215/17/30 Falkens, though these are slightly feather on the outer sides (due to worn ball joints, on my old Cel)
Rears are wrapped with 235/17/40 F1 Bridgestones, both are in Great condition, with approx 95% of rubber left.
Asking price is $950.00 ono. These mags can make a huge difference in appearance and stance to any condition Celica.
I can organise photos if need be.

The front rims have had a large alloy plate welded and machined to the inside of the front rims.
These rims were previously 5-stud, but have been redrilled to suit celica 4-stud.
Am located in Newcastle area.
I obtained them brand new from a Unfinished project friend, who had them on to simply to move the car around his garage. His intention to complete the celica were interrupted by girlfriend/ turning wife, with an expensive honeymoon on the cards, which meant everything had to go!
Will organise photos ASAP.

I'd be intersted too, with pics and offset details, and the width
With the welded plate, did you need longer wheel studs?

Free bump. Great rims, offset is too +ve fit an xA6x unfornunately, but look great on a xA2x.
Axehead, you should upload the pics you have of the rims on a TA23

I don't really understand your questions. Too positive an offset for xA6x means tha it is too close to the strut/inner guards.
The front wheels have spacers welded on, so clear the fronts okay, but the backs tuck in a lot and are too close to the inner guard IMO - epseically for an IRS xA6x with any hint of neg camber. Swapped front & back, the rears seems okay (still fairly tucked in) but the fronts barely clear the struts. Also, the 2 wheels with welded-on spacers have the centrebore corrected for, but the other 2 don't. To use these wheels on an xA6x you'd need to use a spacer on the back pair, and longer wheel studs all round. Hope this helps.

The offset to the rims is unknown to myself at this stage.
(Mainly because i dont know how to correctly measure them!)
Yes i am expecting Draven this Satdy. Let us know if your not coming or unable to make it.
I have provided endless photos to Stef, and based on these and a fitment to an Ra60 Cel, his opinion is that they will not fit his Cel. Its a fair call as they are always going to be a close fit, on any car that isnt built for 17in rims.
They came off a Ta/Ra23 Celica and they fitted comfortably!

Hehe, derr, was looking for a figure 
Would be interesting to see what Draven has to see after seeing them in person.

well, I'll be sure to take pics of the clearances on an ma61 (yes, I'm still coming! )
most interesting will be to see how many turns I can get out of the stock wheel studs, and inumerable other questions.. most of which can only be answered by seeing them on a car!

Umm, no, I can tell you that. 1 turn on the fronts (the ones with spacers), 3 or 4 IIRC on the backs.

I'd figured by draven's lack of response that they didn't.
Everyone's different. I'm just not prepared to use spacers or compromise on offset... my car will have a lot more power than an RA60...
