Any style of Griff wheels wanted. Any Condition.

[DustyC]

Please let me buy your cheap old griff wheels.

I'd prefer the 5 spoke 4.x ones but any will do.
Condition not critical as long as they are straight and can be refurbed.

Thanks
Adam

track days?

[DustyC]

Well some one just said if you dont ask you dont get.
I have a set of S02s in the garage. Seems silly not to put them on some wheels and track 'em.

Plus second check shows they are more than "barely legal" as I previously said.

[catretriever]

Am I right in thinking that the 4 hole pattern is a Ford standard? Could old ford wheels suit Dusty's purpose?

I'm off to Brands next week and wouldn't mind keeping a set of track boots myself.....

[DustyC]

I dont think its that easy. The offsets aren't common apparently (someone prove me wrong please).

I think the back is 37mm and the front 24mm.
I could be completly wrong though, dont have the bible with me.

[DustyC]

Actually, something I hadnt considered before; Chimeara wheels.

Do they have the some offset as Griffs? Are they the same sizes?

[catretriever]

wonder if these would do you...

bugger it.

They probably would do but with only 3 hours to go and me ebay account less I guess I'll just be waiting till the next ones turn up.
(I saw this ad once already and thought they were wedge wheels. Perhaps Im thinking of a different ad).

Do Chim wheels fit Griffs?

I'd be very surprised if they didn't - though check with Bible first.

I read the wheel section and it didnt mention a difference (unless I skipped the bit where it did)

You could have someone with a good ebay rating bid for you if you like. I could oblige... for a small commission

Blimey Dusty, how slow DO you type?

[DustyC]

Im at work for gods sake!
(actually, Im at work for Griffs sake!)

Anyway, to tell the truth Im an Ebayophobic.
I did have an account but its registered to my last employers email address to which I no longer have access. This means I have to start again and since I dont trust the system, haven't.

Shoot me down in another thread please, I want to find out if Chim wheels are the same as Griff wheels in this one!

(or if you shoot me down here then at least tell me something that I will find useful about the wheels!)

[catretriever]

Happy to bid on your behalf if you want, just let me know your limit...

[DustyC]

Thanks, but Im gonna hold out and find out about Chim wheels now.

I really want those old 5 spokes but they must be the rarest. I think they are the best.

[DustyC]

Im gonna get me a big bell and a cart and start walking the streets of blackpool
"any old Griff/Chim wheels"
