[QUOTE="Jipster, post: 46458, member: 97"] AGreed....2nd hand is the way to go....but becoz of 2nd hand need to beware....some thots: If u dun mind jrd's, BSAs and the like there's prolly sum that fit (new even) but may need hubcnetric thingies to make it fit and even then needs off AND on wheel balancing to make it work correctly...otherwise vibration city! So not ideal particularly if u in a habit of trashing yr car as it prolly wont be safe.....but cheap no doubt.... Better would be to hunt down makes that are associated with UDM's in general....e.g. BBS, ronal, zneder etc.....but these are thin on the ground....price may not be cheap as well due to rarity ....if u lucky u buy from sumone who is unaware of its value....sumtimes they can also be cheap but may be false economy coz need moolah to fix/do up.... Another option - replicas....again not cheap but cheaper than the real thing....sum are well made...sum are not.... Sources....ususal suspects....any rim/tire shop.....who knows? u might get lucky....chop shops - there are sum that specialise in rims or have big rim collection, check out motor trader....put a want ad on this forum.....pray real hard - that wd prolly help :) PS - Kevster may still have old set to sell about RM2K+ i think....Loneranger may have sum to sell but his may be even more expensive but high quality, he's a nice guy try and nego-lah....
