Station Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Is there anywhere I can find these without paying the ridiculous "OMG RETRO ON MY MK4 GOLF"* tax. They'd go on my car a treat, and think they look rather special: *Someone's gone and made 4x100 to 4x114.3 adapters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Er, doesn't Mr Bollox have a set of these?I'm guessing you've got a Japanese car then? Cos most of these were 4 x 114.3mm. A few were 4 x 100.I'd check eBay but I know their value has gone up in the last year or so because of scene cross pollination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shite_meister Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 What make are they? they almost look like a larger version of the Mini 1100 Special Alloys made by a company called Exacton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Station Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 Yeah, have a Jappy car, with PAIN IN THE ARSE 114.3 pcd. :(I've traced some cheap ones, though I doubt they'll fit inside my arches anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pogweasel Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Just a case of watching & waiting. Anything OMG RETRO RIDES J-TIN PANTS SPAFF RWD DRFT DATSUN TOYOTA will cost you, find some which are being sold by an old git who had a Lotus Elite in 1986 and you are in. I bought a set of these for £12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milford Cubicle Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Pain in the arse? 114.3 gives you loads of options, albeit all from Japanese cars (and that Lotus) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pogweasel Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 And MGB's, Scimitars, big triumphs, etc. It's 4 and a half imperial, so basically anything big-ish, on four studs from before about 1980 and you are in with a shout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a HUGE market for Jap wheels on Rinkya.I'd be pissed off if I had an old Mazda, most of that stuff is 4 x 110 mm. Old Saabs as well, PITA - 4 x 160.
