Anyone want to swap 18" SE (style 1) wheels for 17"

Hi Folks,
I bought a set of four 18" style 1 (5 spoke) wheels off a SE - with no tyres. Does anyone want to swap their D3 S 17" wheels for my 18"s?

Otherwise, I will sell these 18" wheels and buy some aftermarket 17"s wheels.

Cheers,
Rob

I think it's a case of get in line... Smile

Pity there are not more 17" wheels available out of the showroom.

I know there are sources now of aftermarket 17" alloys, and steel wheels at least.

cheers,

Simon

Hi Simon,
Yeah - I know what you mean. I had to ask though! Smile

Worst case scenario is that I just put General Grabber AT2s on the 18s and keep a big stock of spares.

Cheers

Sorry Rob, I won't be parting with my 17" but try a few dealers (in the bigger cities) as I mentioned in another thread that some owners may have bought an S and swapped for the better looking 18/19s as part of the sale.

Simon can you tell us more about the steel wheels (I am assuming 17") please?

* second had a failure of the water outlet on top of the engine (pls check yours)

Thanks Leigh.

Here is the link to the steel wheels:

They are 17"x7" and silver... might be better for going through the rough stuff - would not have to worry about alloys getting scratched.

Cheers,
Rob

Hi Nicko,
I think I will now keep the spare 18's - two for a trailer and two spares... and just use A/T tyres like General Grabbers.

Cheers,
Rob
