Hi everyone.
i'm just looking at a set of wide split rims to fill my arch. my inner dish is going to be about 3 inch and my outer dish to be 6 inches. i got a price from image and it's going to cost me about 2000 with tyres. does anyone know any cheaper companies or if there are any second hand split rim around that anyone knows of. cheers

You might want to put this in the 'Wanted' section.

They're in Canada so shipping might be an issue, but from their pricelist a set of 13x9 split rims with machined billet centers runs about £683.00, 15x9 = £759.00

I know some of the FSAE teams use them.

Cheers, Ted
