I have a set of gold 5x114.3 only drifteks for sale

3 of them are fine 1 of them is damaged on the inside edge of the wheel, it's been repaired and has recently just randomly started dropping it's air over night

it's a bit of a saga but i could go out tomorrow and get the tyre put back on it and it will hold air for 2 weeks fine then i'll come out one morning and it's dropped all it's air. it's been repaired for like 2 years now, it held air for over a year after i first got it repaired then i took them off the car for a track day and put them back on the car after i came out the next morning and it's dropped it's air.

in all honesty all it really needs is to be taken to a good wheel repairer and they will work where it's been welded a bit better, seriously could just require some sanding and it would be totally fine. <$200

they all have a bit of gutter rash around the edges but nothing bad at all

17 x 8 +35 and 17 x 9 +38 i think, offsets to be 100% confirmed tonight

i will have pics up tonight

Price: $450 - if you factor in say $150 (i highly doubt it would cost that much, it only cost me about $200 to get it repaired in the first place) to get it repaired you get a set of rims for $600 that are in otherwise good condition

the reason i'm not getting them repaired is i took this as an oppotunity/good excuse to get some work wheels :]

that's the repair, the inside of it needs to be cleaned up i think and you should be right to go

the black shit is from when i got the tyre put back on they loaded it up with beed sealer and it lasted for 2 weeks and then i came out one morning to the same result

      Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.

      I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.

      I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.

      I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet
