3 Piece Wheels

Genesis_SLK350 · 08-24-2007

I know that theres one on ebay ...extreme luxuries at $3000+ but still too much for wheels alone... anybody got any suggestions??? im not a big fan of OZ by the way....

China - everything is cheap in China. Or Ebay. Maybe Ebay of China.

Dear Genesis, what a question! If you found your wheels, please ask for a Gallardo Superleggera for me. But must be cheap.

Why 3-piece? Most of them are very sensitive and heavy. Take a look at the piecha rims, they are looking like a 2-piece, but they are out of 1.

Seva's, the cheapest 3-piece wheels you will find, a set of 19"s w/o tires will cost you $1,500 shipped, how the hell are they able to sell 3-piece wheels for that cheap, idk, but Gero might have the answer. http://www.wheelsdirectonline.com/sevas/sevas.htm

DCR is around $3000 for a set w/o tires, so are iForged, and DPE's. 3-piece wheels looks good but are expensive.

You sure those Sevas are 3 piece? They look like they're probably 1 piece. I have someone that would buy them quick if they are indeed 3 piece.

Not sure, I think I've read it somewhere that they claim to be, 6speedonline IIRC, or one can email wheels direct online to get the answer.

LOL! I will try to look for it on Ebay china! hehehe but to answer your question about why 3-piece, its because it looks a whole lot nicer and classier being that its 3-piece, look at Ynot's or Wallance's wheels, my reasons are mainly for cosmetic and not performance.

Hey Ynot, I looked at the official site of Sevas and it said on every wheel that it's just one piece, but it looks really nice like a forged one. thanks! I might be thinking about getting it since i ran out of money trying to put carlsson kit on my car...

Cool, I read someone's post saying it might be 3-piece, I didn't think so either, can't get 3-piece wheels for that price. For that price, they are a bargain even if they are half piece wheels.

Since it's just for cosmetics, they should be fine.

Based on memory, I think it's 5x112. Dan can probably confirm. Those looks nice but if they are the same as your's, why buy the same looking ones? Get a different set.

Baron7700 · 08-27-2007

5x112.5 i believe

Coz Im looking for a similar one to the sevas one but I want six spokes instead of five but they dont have six spokes... so im settling for the next best thing, I have the same one now five spokes

**alroumi** · 08-28-2007

I think the Six spokes are offered by At italia or O.Z not sure about the price, I assure you that its going to be a hefty sum in order to get what you want.
