US of A importing

[nemesisteg]

ive been looking around for wheels and came across these wheels in the states

cost is just under NZD$500 for the rims but what sort of cost would i be looking at to bring rims over?? obviously take up a fair bit of room, or anyone got a container with some space in the corner?? im lookin at you AAP LOL

[offset]

there was someone selling a set of these a while back IIRC. Im pretty sure there are SPORTMAX distributors and retailers in NZ already anyways, so you wouldn't have to go through getting them yourself.

[americ_ian]

depends if you want airfreighted or sea freighted or really slow air freighted

lol

[BTLF3D]

i got quoted around 300US to bring 4 wheels over via USPS...
are you sure those wheels will fit your car ?? lol

[Horny_Devil]

ud be pushing it

15x8 +0 and 16x8 at +15

15's are NZ$570 + 110 freight
16's i think were cheaper at 630 including shipping

[nemesisteg]

yeah the price i got didnt include any shipping, sadly 16x8 you dont seem to get too many options, im sure we could make +15 work LOL to be honest i dont really like the wheels, sure the bit of sweet dish is all good but the inner part of the wheel looks like something youd put on some old school jappa. i was more so just querying wether or not its worth looking into finding wheels from the states

[BTLF3D]

go for some rotas if you want cheap 16x8's, if you want dear 16x8's go for volks

[nemesisteg]

i want cheap bro haha my car doesnt get splashed on anymore, who does rota wheels these days?? wasnt it a user on here? 22 or something??

[WingIt]

Rota have the Track R's in 15x7 +18 offset (look like sprinthart CPR) have a couple other wheels in that sort of offset too


Edit/

Adam was looking at bringing some in, check out retailers section

[nemesisteg]

15" is too small bro, they only have two sets of wheels that are 16x8 and 4x114, slipstreams or the RB's, and the latter are bit old school looking for me too lol i'll holla at adam

[BTLF3D]

yea, slipstreams are about the best cheap 16x8 you will find, i have been looking for ages, i am actually looking at bringing a set in for myself... wonder how long it will be untill adam puts a order in...?

[nemesisteg]

he said only state your interest in his thread if your ready to pay for them in 1-2months max?? hard to say

[WingIt]

After he gets back from the US he is collecting orders and talking a deal with Rota

[Mac]

Try CPA spares in Petone, Wellington. They sell that brand =] Wheels are about US$120 / each to air freight, and USPS have yanked their ocean freight service so there's little choice left.

[EVLTEK FBI AKL]

i am gonna get onto the ROTA thing when I get back - if they let me order based on the large variety and randomness of the order then we will go ahead for sure.

Will have somethig for them and should hear back what is going on in 2 weeks or so.
