1990 wheels wanted - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

xxxscimitarxxx · 09-20-2008

Hi to all from UK

I managed to have a loss of concentration while going for the windscreen wiper switch on a typically narrow piece of UK road and clobbered both front and rear wheels pretty good on the concrete base of a keep left sign. Repairable l think (bent the lip in about little finger proportions on both rims) but not your average wheel doctor stuff (going be a cut out, tig weld and machine job)......so

was looking to have a set of spare rims, preferably stock 90s. condition not needing to be perfect but useable. with or without tyres.

learned observation.......ZR1's are wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide

I have a set as well. If nothing works out with bans, let me know. Tires are off, in good shape, not sure on shipping though.

bans25 and Jeff.....l have PM ed you on the 90s

but lve got a 92 arriving in UK shortly which has 95 five spokes on it.....and so l was considering getting a set of 92 saw blades for originalitiy sake

If anyone has a set l would also be intersted...again condition need not be pristine but acceptable

the funny part about all this is that ive been told lm probably coming to work in CA for two years...leaving my cars behind me in UK....which is doubly funny considering one of my Zr's came from cali.......

either l get another ZR while lm in CA or ship one back from UK.....old English expression "taking coal to Newcastle"
