View Full Version : Wheel dealer in Los Angeles....
finn_mick 10-21-2003, 11:42 PM Okay, I am in the SF Valley. Any wheel/tire places I should go to? I already know what I want. AXIS dosen't make the wheels I like anymore, and the ROTA's just aren't doing it so...I am going to go with the Motegi (MR7) in the same size. Any places people?
finn_mick 10-21-2003, 11:47 PM I didn't know it was a downgrade, the only ones I like are the "Slipstreams."

What Axis wheels were you looking for.
I have a set of Wheel Site Mesh 2 for sale still..19"x 8 with a 40mm offset which is not common for this wheel.
finn_mick 10-22-2003, 12:06 AM I was looking for the Axis - VPD (Gunmetal). 15x6.5
GINNJUICE 10-22-2003, 12:10 AM what size and brand are u looking for ? maybe i can help u ... i live in the sf valley
Longoscion 10-22-2003, 12:12 AM Hmm, get the wheelsite mesh........its sweeeeeet.
finn_mick 10-22-2003, 12:14 AM I know what I want, the MOTEGI MR7 (Gunmetal) 15x6.5/4 lug. I was curious if anyone had any places in the surrounding area I should check out.
I am a bit of a cherry when it come to wheels. Never bought em, didn't need too.
scioninla 10-22-2003, 12:16 AM I was looking for the Axis - VPD (Gunmetal). 15x6.5
for VPD..check www.scioned.com
If not check Ranch Hill Tires in Lakewood CA.
Last time I checked they had some VPDs.
Also Axis has the Mag Lites in gun metal in 15's but ETA is in Jan. 2004 since they are in back order..too popular.
Hope this helps.
finn_mick 10-22-2003, 12:26 AM No scioned.com dosen't have em. I found them at WheelMax.com, and they don't have em.

finn_mick 10-22-2003, 12:39 AM I'll check it out.
Thanks.
finn_mick 10-22-2003, 12:52 AM Yah, it was worth a try. The VPD aren't made anymore from what I can tell. Thanks though.
showpaojoe 10-22-2003, 01:07 AM What about the Katana vr-7 in gunmetal

Now why do you have to go and mix me all up! LOL They are pretty close to the Motegis I am looking at not to mention, I figured I would get 15". I like em though.
showpaojoe 10-22-2003, 01:28 AM They're almost identical. I just put em up so you can save even more money. Motegi is nice but you can't beat the price a shop will go down on some katana's.
finn_mick 10-22-2003, 01:33 AM Really, I didn't know that. Guess I should check out a few wheel/tire places this weekend huh.
