Exar-Kun..Question about your wheels...

[Onizuka]

would your gram lights fit over the 300zx front brakes? those are the rims i want to get! also, how much did you pick them up for and where?

i love the styling and they are suppposed to be really light!

[Exar-Kun]

yes they do fit over 30mm turbo brakes, and thusly the smaller 26(or is it 28?)mm non-turbo Z32 brakes. my cost for the entire set was about 1100 dollars.-chet

[Onizuka]

yeah the nonturbo are 26mm

[Structure240sx]

where did u get them from

[Exar-Kun]

uh...volk.I got them from a freidn whos got an account with makin(US distributor for VOLK/rays).-chet

[gr56a]

Exar, is it too much to ask to get hooked up with that discount that you got?:oface

[Exar-Kun]

not really, but you gotta be serious about buying them, and pay shipping from me to you. I need at least a 50% deposit also. it may take 2 weeks to get them in. if your serious I can locate them and probably get a similar price.-chet

[creophus]

Hey Exar-Kun, I'd like to get in on this! Is the offer still good? How much do the 57F or 57Pro weigh? I can't find any specs on them. If you can get me a set for $1100, that would be great! I know this is an old post, but hopefully you'll still be able to do this!

[Exar-Kun]

what size finish, etc do you want?

give me spec, and send me an e-mail with at LEAST your zip code so I can get shipping charges. the 57c(not F) weighs in at(by my scale) 15.6lbs, but is recorded at 17 I think, either way its pretty damned light.

the 57 PRO is far more expesnive, but I can get you prices on that too once I know the size and offset you want. -chet

[captain nismo]

Hey Exar-Kun, can you get volk CE28's? Those are nice wheels, i'm looking at 17's.

[Exar-Kun]

can you afford them? I can get a hold of damn near any wheel made by a reputable manufacturer....-chet

[captain nismo]

Well, how much would the 17 x 7 CE28N cost? Or the TE37's? Volks are very good quality and are lightweight so I might go the extra mile to get some...

[Doogz]

I'm not 100% sure how much they would cost but i'd say $500+ for each rim probably in the $600 range actually.

[Exar-Kun]

I'll look it up sometime tommorow, where am I shipping them?-chet

[captain nismo]

up to Canada. Edmonton, Alberta to be exact. I just want to get a quote or whatever because i know that there gonna cost an arm and a leg, I just want to see how many arms and legs it would take. Thanks again chet.Chris

[Exar-Kun]

the CE28 will run you about 600 dollars a peice....ouch. at least, thats what the price book says.-chet

[captain nismo]

That much? Thats insane. Are the TE37's cheaper or would they be about the same. Are the Gram Lights still about 1100 for the set? Thanks again Exar-Kun.Chris

[Exar-Kun]

yes and no, the 1100 was almost wholesale. I can get them to someone for around 1200+shipping....-chet

[bob marley]

Hey, I'm really interested in the Gram Lights Pro (Gold with polished lip) Zip code is 33617. Will 17x8 fit in the front? I want 17x9 in the rear, but I don't want to stagger it more than an inch. How much is it to get 2-17x8 and 2-17x9 shipped to Tampa? I'm just curious because I got a quote of $1550 for all four here. Is that a good deal?

Anyone know what the widest tire I can fit in the rear of a 91 240sx?

Thanks, Johann

1550 for a gram light pro in a correct offset is a good price, for all four.-chetyou can run a 255-40-17, on a 17x8.5 or 17x9 if you want, and it will fit fine, but you may want to check into fender flares if you dont get the offset just right.

Hmmm. Thanks. The 17x9 pro's only come with a +35 offset for the 4x114.3 pattern. Will that offset cause a problem with the 255-40-17s? Also, I don't think the 17x8 will fit in the front because it has the same +35 offset. I guess I'll go with a 17x7 in the front and 17x9 in the rear. By the way, I have a 91 240.

Could I roll the fenders? I'm not a big fan of fender flares (unless they are molded).

Thanks, Johann

[Exar-Kun]

run a 17x7.5 in the front and a 17x8.5 in the back...30mm front offset and either the same rear offset or slightly larger will work(33-35mm)-chet

that will clear coilovers, and allow you to run a 235-45-17 and 255-40-17 or a 225-45-17 and 245-40 17(or evem a 255, still)

I run 17x7.5 all the way around.

[bob marley]

The problem is, the gram light pros don't come in 1/2 sizes for 17's. They are only available in 17x7, 17x8, and 17x9. However, Maybe I should go with 16x7.5 and 16x8.5? I should still be able to fit z-brakes with 16's right?

Here is a pic:

Thanks,Johann

[Exar-Kun]

run a 17x7 and a 17x8 and a 225-45-17 ands 245-40-17, that would be a nice split setup for the vehicle. -chet

Thanks for your help. If I recall correctly, the price for that setup w/o tires was in the $1400 range (maybe high $1300).

Thanks,Johann
