EOI - 16"x8" Simmons B45s' - 5 x 114.3 - **** NOW ON EBAY **** Fri, 01 October 2004 00:22 Go to next message
Tossing around a few ideas at the moment, and one of them may make the Simmons redundant.

They are now listed on ebay !!
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&a mp;category=55436&item=7929617809&rd=1

The specs are ;

16" x 8" (yes, there are four of them)
5 x 114.3 stud pattern
72mm centre bore (but can supply rings to adapt to 68mm uhb)
Grey/Charcoal centre
+25mm offset
225/50x16 tyres (2 Michaelin & 2 Firestone) with 30% tread remaining

They fit great on a MA61 with 5 stud conversion (see attached pic)

http://img37.exs.cx/img37/9582/2004-07-25045.jpg

The centres are a little scratched, but are easily repainted, and I have 4 centre caps as well.

They are virtually damage free (apart from the painted centres as mentioned)

I'm after offers around the $800 mark

They are now listed on ebay !!

Michael,

Being 25mm offset, how do they do with clearance with the car front and back?

How far do they sit inside the front flares and how far in at the back? Very Happy

They clear the RA60 front struts that I have fitted by about 10mm to the tyre and they sit inside the front flares by about 5 - 10mm (I'll try and get a better pic when I get back to work on Tuesday).

On the rears, they sit in about 25 - 30mm without the spacer that I have used with the brakes that i have fitted.

Basically they sit out a little further than the std 14x7" Supra rims

Cheers

They will fit a range of cars, and were reportedly fitted to a 300ZX Nissan

When you look at the offsets, the backsapcing on the Simmons is about 125mm and this gives a front spacing of 78mm, whereas the std 14x7" Supra rims are 96 BS and 75 FS, so these mags sitick out another 3mm than the std MA61's

Cheers

if you hadn't 5-stud converted them, I'd have already made all sorts of monetary and sexual offers for them Smile

Greg,

I didn't convert the rims, I did the car Very Happy

However, it might be a great chance/reason to change to 5 studs and I'll help ya with a killer brake upgrade as well !!!!!!

Might even get rid of the front calipers as I have a lead on some Porsche GT3 monoblock calipers .....

Quitter !!!!! What is holding you back ????

You know you want them.

You know you need them.

You know they will look so sexy on your car.

I can even be tempted to do a deal on the calipers and mounts to go with it !@!!

Go, you know it is your destiny. Very Happy

Make me an offer I can't refuse....
