Anyone have Performance Alloys Superlite GTR's??

Postby green_comet » Sun Oct 12, 2008 6:06 pm

Hi guys,

Im interested in getting a set of Performance alloys Superlite GTR's. I want to get a set in 4x100 15x7 +12 offset, but I have been finding it really had to find any pics of them in this offset. I was going to get a set of 4x100 15x7 +12 SSR Meshies that were sourced in Japan for me, but due to the bad aussie dollar im looking at $2000+ to get them to my door.. :?

This is the picture of the GTR Superlites on the Performance alloys website.. Its not really much help, I would like to see them on an angle..

Image

I want to get the GTR Superlites over the normal Superlites as they are alot lighter.. eg 15x8 superlight 9.2kg, and the
15x8 GTR superlight 7.4kg

Oh and these are the SSR's that I was going to get, but I dont want to donate a kidney to get them..

Image

If anyone has a picture of 15x7 +12 wheels, or superlites on their MX5 please post it up, it would be very appreciated. It would help me out to see how they sit..

Cheers
Ryan

Can't help with any pics. :frown:
How much are the superlites vs the superlite GTRs?
Should look good, how many sets of wheels have you had on your car now? :mrgreen:

i dont have a price for the 15x7 +12. I only have a price for 15x8 -4 that was on a website I found. The Superlites in 15x8 -4 are $250ea, and GTR Superlites in the same size are $330ea. So Im hoping the 15x7 +12 GTR's are around $250-$280 each..

Sell someone else's kidney?
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

I've always loved the Mazdaspeed MS-01's and these are especially gorgeous in Gold.

Well I did some ringing around earlier to a few wheel places, and im looking at $295 a wheel for 15x7 +12 GTR Superlites, and If I order them its a 4-5weeks wait as they have to make them up..

Im still hunting for some better pictures of them, but im not having much luck..

Go pimp Lachlan on a street corner for a few nights then get the SSR's. He'd be a fan of them so he wont mind

Anyone need any sexual favors done for cash?? haha
I can see fastfreddy rushing to his wallet as we speak.. :lol:

I do love those ssr's but 2 grands for second hand wheels with no tyres. :? I think ill just keep saving and wait for our dollar to go back up, then get another set sourced from Japan..

I got that price from Bridgestone in Caroline Springs, Bob Jane in Eltham, and Factory Direct Tyres & Wheels in Thomastown.. They all said $295 each and a 4-5 week wait, I think that is just the RRP from Performance alloys..

I do like equips, but 15x8 +10 I think will stick out a bit too far past the guards. If you have some pictures, and prices though I wouldnt mind having a look.. 8)
