New Rims For The 32


Recommended Posts

well its finally time to replace the stock rims.

I was thinking of getting some white ones and looking at spending as little as possible. Bob jane has a cataloguecatalologue. What do you think of the white circuits? there dirt cheap, so i could spend some more. any opinions??

thanks!

most 5 or 6 spoke racing wheels r hot, sometimes a bit of dish is nice too :)

the circuits are a nice looking rim but personally i preffer less spokes. On that page i would go for the Vortex D2, but if you definately want white i guess thats not an option.

good luck with the descision and post some pics when u get a new set :O

I like the buddyclub p1s very much.

my budget is about 1k though.. anyone know any good, cheap wheel places in sydney, maybe 2nd hand ones?

white circuits might look allright depending if they get the offset right or not. For the money you are probably not going to get any Jap brand rims even second hand these go for 1800+.

    • Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.
    • From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)
    • In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird
    • Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller
    • So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
