Rims (and tires) wanted

Post by Peter Connan »

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?

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.

Haijj daa Piet'a .. Wat van 16" PRO WHITE rims ? Meeste Bos waens kom met dit uit [gewoonlik 15"] maar 16 behoort ook op Gomboom rond te lê ...
en daar is in ons Uitreik stoor [16"] .. net eers sien wat gebeur met iNyathi se wiele .. of hy ook 17" gaan ry soos LOBO [OF lobo moet afkom 16" toe ???]

Hierdie add op Gomboom klink goed ??? http://www.gumtree.co.za/a-car-tyres-ri ... 0770753509

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.
