I'm after a set of Speedy Hi Racing rims in White finish in 15 x 6.5". Can't find anywhere in sydney that stocks them, ive called all the fully sick stores. anyone know where i might get my hands on a set? At the moment only ppl i know who have them are Donnellans in Melbourne and i really CBF going thru the hassle of shipping, etc etc.....

that's them! :P exactly the ones im after Win. I was quoted $1190 w/ rubber over the phone to Australia's Best, but they tell me they only have the matte black and bronze/gold finish. Apparently according to them Speedy no longer makes the white finish...... this really shits me..... :cry:
lol..so if anyone knows where i might get some white ones let me kno pls...

Your better of ringing people on the phone. You can wait weeks for reply's via email sometimes. If their website hasnt been updated in a while, they might not check email very often either, you never know :D

...went with ur advice, just gave em a call. very professional and friendly. He confirmed they dont actually make them in white (then WTF is that pic doin on their website? it looks factory, with the sticker on the rim and all... lol), but they can powdercoat them or bake them in enamel?
Anyway, quote for 15 x 6.5"s was $290 a rim, so i spose Australia's Best still wins in terms of price. Will have a grab a set of the black, play with it for awhile then powdercoat them when flush with cash....... now all we have to hope is that they trade in my 17" rims for a decent price.... (or that Ben buys them!!! :P ). Btw, did u all know that shipping costs for 4 rims up from Melb. only costs around $60? I thought that was pretty cheap...... :roll:

SFA? what pricing am i looking at for the wheels and the postage? Reason i rather do it locally is cos id rather trade in my 17"s than selling them privately.

It'd still be black ... just very matt black. :wink:

I dont know retail but I paid less for my Racing Harts than Speedy quoted for those rims........and they are white 8)
