    The Robin Reliant, Odd Wheel Thread

    OK you guys I`m sure its not just me who always seems to end up with a killer set of wheels with one missing.

    This thread is dedicated to all the sets of 3 wheels out there, hence the Robin Reliant reference. (Google it you youngsters).

    If we all post up pics of incomplete sets of wheels, matbe we will be able to match a few up.

    This is not intended in a commercial way, more as a way to keeps some great wheels rolling and not melted down.

    Please post pics of your wheels, what they are and where you are located

    I`ll start

    Early BBS 4 Stud 4x100 15inch only 3 and one has a dint in the edge. Sydney



    Bora / Golf 4 Mags 5x100 15" Only 3, all with good michelin tyres.

    If you want a 4th to match these 3 15s, I know a guy with a spare pair.

    He wanted $200 the pair shagged tyres. He will sell individually also.

    PM if interested.
