Hi,

Can anyone tell me where to get cheap 8x15" or 16" wheels?

Only place found so far is /www.tyresdirectuk.co.uk/

Ebay wasn't that helpful, and my google-skills on wheel-searching suck.. :huh:

I got my black modulars from there (15x8), they were the cheapest I found with stock 2 months ago.

I got the wheels with tyres fitted which was a lot cheaper than getting them separately.

They were very quick and helpful - although the balancing seems a bit off! But I'd still recommend them.

I have been in touch with them guys about a spare for my Jimny.

8spoke wheel with a 215/80/15 Malatesta Trac was £100 delivered, which isnt bad IMO.

Not much luck in contacting tyresdirectuk.

Have written 2 emails so far and recieved no replies. Perhaps I have to look somewhere else for wheels and tyres.

Try telephoning them. I phoned them and found them really helpful when i bought my Malatesta Kaiman's from them.

Perhaps a bit stupid question, but is this guy related to before mentioned tyresdirectuk.co.uk ? :-)

Sorry, yes he is. Knew what would fit with the lift kits I have fitted.
