Im After A Favor Peeps?

[Kazi]

Long shot, but Ive just bought some wheels off eBay but trying to avoid A) Courier expenses or B) A long trip down south!

So it would be a big help and very much appreciated if anyone around that area could collect for me? Im trying to sort of get a chain going. Any takers? Obviously I would not expect anything for free.........

Any help would be great!

Many thanks,

Kaz. :P

You need a min 40 offset Kaz.

Ideally 45.:)

I know because I made the mistake of buying wheels an offset of 38 and without Gord's help would have been in big trouble!

[Mr Morse]

But Lexus quotes the offset for both 17" and 18" rims at 38 to 45 :duh:

I think it has something to do with my rims being 8J wide and not 7.5J

Now running at 41 offset with arches rolled at the back and no issues ;)

Well, I'm east london as u know ......... and I'm going to Birmingham on the 29th of this month.

So if anyone gets them to me ........... I'll be able to bring them from london to brummie.

I don't think they will fit though ! (on your car that is)

[Steve]

if yu get stuck send me a PM and I can collect.. its about 30 miles from me though.. and i am further south

[Kazi]

Thanks for the posts so far guys, ive asked the eBay seller if I can retract my bid. So i'll keep you folks posted.

Thanks,

Kaz.

[Rob]

all i will say is that the TUV cert for that wheel at that offset, lists the IS200/300 as an applicable fitment

He won't be happy ! - Neg feedback your way me thinks ..............

[Bazza]

where did the fact they have a 35mm offset come from ??

cant see it stated anywhere

TTE list the wheels as both 35mm and 40mm offset

with the 35mm offset the centre bore is 54mm (toyota fitment)

on the 40mm offset the centre bore is 60.1mm (lexus fitment)

so even if they are 35mm offset they wont fit the hubs !

but they may well be the 40mm offset ones

So if the chap states the above im ok then? As you can tell im not very good at this......

[Rob]

u should be, but i am only saying that as it shows the is200 on the tuev cert for the wheel in the specs i have stated above. in the applicable notes it doesnt say anything about modding the arches or liners, only comment is that the tyres should be 215/45/17

[Kazi]

Just spoke to the guy and he's been very reasonable. Agreed to drop the transaction and ive agreed to pay the eBay fees he's incurred through placing this add. So, not a bad outcome after all.

Great stuff mate !
