Rims (and tires) wanted
After having promised never to tow a trailer on holiday again, I am now building my own camping trailer...
But I have a small conundrum. The hubs I am using are from the current-generation VW polo (5 holes M14 x 1.5 on a 100mm pcd).
The original intention was to use the same rims and tires as on my Patrol (A-Line Grip 15" x 8" with 32x11.5 x15s). But the M14 x 1.5 capscrews I would need to bolt the adapter plate to the hub will set me back R900 for a set of ten, which seems a bit mad.
So I am investigating options. The question is whether I can find three Polo rims of abovementioned size (or maybe 15 x 7) for less than two Patrol rims and the cost of the adapter plates...
Anybody perhaps have some lying around?

Re: Rims (and tires) wanted
Peter, there are some Polo and Golf wheels for sale on Gumtree if you are willing to fork out 2k for a set. They come with tyres so its not that bad really plus you will have two spare wheels as well.

Re: Rims (and tires) wanted
Thanks guys
Roelf, my trailer has independent suspension.
Josh, nee. Dankie, maar steeds nee.
Oom Mac, as daar pro-whites was in 100mm 5-gat, sou dit 'n opsie wees. Daai op die advertensie sou presies gewees het wat ek soek as hulle net 15" in plaas van 16" was. Dis vir my ononderhandelbaar: ek moet bande tussen die wa en die kar kan rondskuif.
