Spare wheel in Adelaide, South Aus

peterj · #1 (**permalink**) 03-09-2010, 02:45 AM

Folks,

I've just posted a WTB in the Buy/Sell section (thread), but if I don't get any responses I wanted to start chasing up where else I might be able to buy one.

I have tried the 3 dealers in Adelaide and 1 wrecker. I'm now beginning to work through a list of the bigger tyre centres.

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Peter.

Try ebay there is always wheels on there and if it is out of state, ring a Freight company not a courier company, Freight companies are cheaper

Got it from Nisswreck (South Tce, Wingfield). Cost $330. Sounds expensive, but it appears to be the spare from a wrecked vehicle - wheel and tyre look to be as good as my spare which has never been used - this one is clean whereas mine is dirty.

They didn't have any other steel wheels, but did have an alloy (without tyre I think) with a "nasty big scratch" for $250.

You could always try a aftermarket wheel 'sunrayasia' for about $120
