Hello, I am after a range of SSR MK1 rims (the three piece disc type. Stud pattern and offset is not critical (going to be gutsed out to suit a VW beetle stud pattern)
Need 15x7/8/9's
16x6/7
A bit of kerbing slight dings scratches and gouges is ok, they are going ot spend the rest of their life hitting rocks etc anyhow. Will also consider single rims or rim components ie inners and outers. Let me know price and location and we can go from there
Chris

Not after a total bargain set, willing to pay what is fair market price for them, surely someone out there has a pair or four kicking around the shed that they no longer need?

I fail to see how it is destroying them, its simply redrilling them for another PCD and using on something that isnt a Toyota.
Compared to the amount of damage thats done by gutter drifters and incompetent drivers, redrilling a wheel is fairly low on the list of destruction.
This was the chace/call to people who had wheels with damage that made them unsuitable for use on their road car/aesthetically unpleasing. OR people who had used incorrect wheel nuts and destroyed them for their intended purpose.
If you are soo attached to a wheel that you dont want to see it hurt by getting 5 new holes drilled in its centre piece I suggest you dont sell them, I also suggest you might go and seek counselling/look at something else to fill your life ie fing a girlfriend/boyfriend whatever floats you boat.
I shall keep it in mind, and have a moments silence when the holes are drilled, and I trust you set that isnt on a car but are in glass display cases have a good life.

Its for a Class 1 off road racing car, ie competing at a national level. Its far from "Padock Bashing", I'd love to see your padock basher, if you are willing to spend a few hundred bucks on a pair of rims just to keep the unsprung weight down.
I understand your concerns, and it is truly touching you care so deeply for your rims. However they will still have a tyre on them, and hitting a rock with a high profile tyre at 170+ KM/hr does little more than add a tiny nick to the rim. To give you an idea of this, the current rims on the car have been on there for the last 10 years of racing and are only just starting to look a bit second hand, mainly due to a big accident.
Still looking for a set.
Cheers Chris
