I am trying to source a set of OZ Split rims for my Pre-cat Griff.
I'll either buy or exchange for Estorils etc pref in the South East

Does any one know where to get the rims that are on the LE's instead?

I did try the 'wanted' section without sucess.

Good luck with the quest, word of advice, if you find any make sure they are complete with the centre caps as they are impossible to find. The wheels do come up very occasionally for sale on PH or ebay but generally will need refurbishment (unless very lucky) when they do.

To ensure longevity of my split rims I bought a set of Estorils years ago and use the OZ sparingly. They do look great when in good condition and complete that authentic pre cat look. Remember also that the LE Griffs with splits used 16" rims all round.

I've got OZ split rims on my 4.3, which are in really good condition. They are all complete with centres etc, except for 1 of the security bolts holding one of the centres on, which has been replaced by an ordinary bolt. Are the proper bolts available?

I am still trying to make up my mind as to whether I like the Ozs enough to spend the time keeping them cleaned properly, or should I find some 5 spokes and get those refurbished?

You won't get the original bolts unless you get some made.

Hi Balraj,

I have the wheels you require, with new(500 miles)toyo tyres on........rears are 16-inch with 245/45/16W, fronts are 15-inch with 205/50/15W. They were refurbished this year at great expense and are mint, with correct centre caps and retaining screws.I take it your 4.3 does not have PAS.

As gentlemen we should not really discuss the filthy subject of money in public. What are your estorils like, and how old are the tyres(they should be changed at 5 years irrespective of condition)?

Drop me an e-mail and we'll do a deal.You will have to supply your own toothbrush for cleaning. I do not have one as I don't have any teeth.
