Any updates on the superlite gtr's ?

Was thinking about getting a set for my nb........ Interested to see what guard mods you need to do to get them on...... hoping just a light lip and flare

[RG.net]

I just paid $1100 for some 16x8 +4 superlite GTR's...
Got em Through Wheelworx in Adelaide for $275 per rim!
Im happy with the price because when I got a quote from my local Beaurepairs they told me $350 per rim!

Im still waiting on them so Il post some pics when they arrive

thats actually not a very bad price at all considering my XXR's are 200 a rim.

very keen to see pictures.

depending on camber, you will need to make love to your guards and then abuse it a little (i.e lip as much as you can then pull/flare etc)

in the end of it all, it depends at what height you want your mx to sit at, you could get away with being a little higher then me, otherwise the stance will be all wrong.

I'l be ringing them AGAIN tomorrow, Said I wasnt after them in a hurry but almost 6mths is bullshit considering the factory is 20 mins from my house!

Thats bullshit, I got pissed off when my buddy clubs took 5 days to arrive!

I just ordered a set on monday......sure hope they dont take six months to come....... Got them through Merridian motor sport in melbourne....
Apparently the "gtr" superlite is recomended for track only...... They said 4 to 6 weeks from date of order!

haha, i guess i'm not the only one that gets impatient on waiting for new parts to arrive.

Went to get my wheels yesterday from wheelworx....

Opened the box and they were the wrong fking wheels!
They were ordinary superlites painted silver....
I ordered GTR's,my wheelworx invoice says GTR's, but wheels in the box aint GTR'S...


To be continued....

[wazman]

That sucks man! thought the price you were getting them for was damn cheap Mine were $1300 and that's the special price for mx5 club members in melb.......

Cant wait to get em.........already sick of my 5 looking like a train

[wazman]

yay they finally came! 10 weeks wait ! But they sure are hot...... Now my train is running mexican style
Need coilovers and camber adjustment of some sort to tuck em under the guards......
If your curious the tyres are Federal 595's 205x40x16 stretched on easily.

[Duj]

Nice, I got mine the other day as well, silvermx5 has them now as he made me a offer I couldnt refuse....

[philz]

his specs were in earlier posts....

[wazman]

They are 16x8 +4 ........ though the only marking on the rim itself that indicates what could be offset is "N 4" .....??

Yeah i intend on slamming it...... half tyre under guard on the rear is the look i'm going for...... Think a set of "BC coilovers" from nz..... hopefully they will get me low enough.
