Blow your Challenge Budget on Rims

Maybe you could fab up something using an old bike and peddle yourself through the events. I put these up on Pelican tonight. Any other suggestions on where to post these?

I bought these thinking I could get a 5x114.3 face to use on a 68 Mustang project but decided to cut my losses and go with an off the shelf solution. I am not sure what they came off of only know that they came off a Porsche.

As best I can tell they appear to be 16X12 and 16X11 CCW Classic Wheels. They have older Goodyear Rain tires mounted. According to the bathroom scale they weight 34.6 (16x11) and 39.9 (16X12) with tires. I also have spacers for the front wheels. They are 2 inches and weight roughly 7lbs each.

The wheels are in great shape with no bends/ curb rash etc. I believe them to be off a PCA car or possibly a Rolex car from the track at Daytona. They were marked LF, RF, LR, RR and have the stick on weights held on by tape.

I have attached some photos and also linked the album of with more photos. If you need something specific let me know.

I am asking $1000 to GRM peoples. Email is gregory.k.voth (at) gmail.com

H&R makes a 5X114.3 to 5X130 conversion spacer kit.

Don't know if that helps, but you never know.

They look nice, good luck selling them.

Mystery solved thanks to Pelican. They are CCW Classics. Makes sense since the shop is right here in Daytona.

I might look into how much a different face for them would be now or will make a GRM reader a good deal.

Are the existing faces 5x120 Porsche? (I am assuming...) What are the offsets? That will determine what they can be stuffed up under.

They are 5X130 Porsche pattern. Not sure of the offset but I did post up photos of all my measurements here. I will try to get the offset measured up for you.

Right 5x130... that is what I meant, have BMW on the brain today. I was going to send the link to the 964/993 track guys I hang with... you know... the commerical holiday season is coming and those would look awesome in a red bow. They would look even more awesome on my 911 but... I'm sorry to say my budget has already been soaked up with other tomfoolery.

God they would look hot on the MR2.

Updated price big time. We are running a Lemons race over new years so I could use the money.

I never checked the offset but I will try to get to that.

I have determined that no one makes 16 inch street tires in this size so they would best be served as race wheels.

I am coming up and down I-95 from FL to DC the weekend of Jan 22nd for delivery.

Post them for sale on VW vortex. I bet some homo with a Passat will buy them.

Hot damn.....why did I look

Hey now, I sold my Passat and have a GLI now.

Can't help but think just how awesome these would look on the Wartburg. And they are even the right bolt pattern.

I would cut you a good deal to see them go on the Wartburg.

I can even bring them as far as DC. They could live in my parents basement until you can get them.

Quoted for truth.

+1 to motivate this seller. +1 to motivate this buyer.

That would look obscenely good.

Still hot.

Hmmm...and my parents live in Frederic MD.

Wish I had the cash right now, it would definitely take the Wartburg to a different level and require some rediculously awesome flares, but 'tis the season.....to be broke :(

I kinda want these, and I have NOTHING to put them on- but I know the dub crowd would try and kill for them around here.... good thing that shipping to MN is impossible.

Anything is possible!

I hear you on the broke part. After the Challenge, Christmas Stuff and now a Lemons race my wallet has taken a huge hit.

Very cool.

I'm madly trying to sell off rare Nash parts right now. If something comes of it I'll keep this in mind.

Hell, I'll trade you an entire 1929 Nash for 'em ;) The utter maddness of what they would do to the wartburg is worth it. Of course I'd have to build up a drivetrain worthy of their sticky goodness too :)

*not that there's anything wrong with that

gosh!!!!! i'd love to pu these with adapters on my starion.... where in Fl are you?

Daytona Beach. I wouldnt even bother with adapters. You can get new center faces for a bit over $100 each from CCW if I remember correctly. You will probably be paying about $300-$400 for four spacers.
