Hi All,

Ok, before everyone gets excited, I have 2 of the ELXR rims with rubber - the rims are damaged - ie each rim has a chunk taken out of them along the rim (oval-ish shaped about 10 cms along / around the rim and maybe 3-4 cms deep in the deepest spot - the other rim is similar in damage measurements too)...I am told they can be used as a spare.

The rims can obviously be repaired / painted - they might suit a trailer perhaps *shrugs*. The rubber is nothing special either - the only redeeming feature of the rubber is that it's black...tread is pretty much non-existent !

I bought these a while back with intentions of repairing them and using them on a trailer - but that idea has since gone out the window and they're now taking up valuable space in the shed .

Will post up some pics of these shortly.

$50 each or both for $80

I can also offer free personal delivery of these to anyone in the Melbourne Metro area or surrounding suburbs !

Thanks & Cheers,
Steve

PS, I think they both may have centrecaps too - will double check / confirm.

wherebouts are u?

G'day Mate,

I'm in the Eastern suburbs - whereabouts are you ? I'm happy to arrange a viewing time and place if you're interested

Cheers,
Steve

Sounds a bit nasty steve! Do you know what happened to them?

Hiya Andrew,

I'm not entirely sure - I can only presume they were gutter slammed maybe...but they don't appear to be buckled - so it's hard to say !

They would look nicer in the boot as a spare over a steelie / suit trailer of some description - or suit repair, hence why I'm not after much for them.

I'll get pics first thing in the morning to show the damage.

Cheers,
Steve

yeah mate im in box hill. interested in one. u have a rough idea on how much it would cost to get fixed?

Mash,

To give you an idea, I got an EL GT wheel repaired (including welding) and repainted / rebalanced etc and it cost me $170...being a smaller rim, I could onlny presume it would be cheaper...but then again the damage is more severe than just a gutter scrape. The good thing about repairing is that the rim comes out brand spankers - so it's like you've bought a brand new one !

I guess it's a tough call - if you're able to pickup 1 or 2 in good nick (ie no damage) it may be worthwhile doing that ? Anyway - pics to come and y'all can judge for yourselves
