I want some 13x6 superlites, but where is the best place to get them from? I live in QLD if thats any help to anyone so somewhere in QLD would be best so I don't have to pay a boat load for freight. Are tyre or mini places better to go? What are some places people have gone and how much did they pay? not really worried about tyres at the moment, just the rims. Mini places would have the ideas on offsets but they may not be the cheapest so I was just wondering what everyone else has done. But while we are on tyres can you get 45 profile tyres for 13x6 or only 50?

Also are they actually light or is it just a name? Not that I really care because they look horn, just thought I would ask.

I know John Wakefield's old clubbie race car (now Ozmotorsport's) is now running 13x8 Superlites on the front (10x7 Mawer mags on the back....!)

Wher did he get 'em?? Bob Jane... took just a week or two. :wink:

Hey,

I got some 10X4.5 superlights from beaurepaires in Central Queensland. They were much cheaper than any of the other (tyre) places that i got quotes from. Worth a phone call. Not sure on the availability of the 13's but godd luck

i priced some 13x7 superlites the other day at beaurepaires, and the guy said that they would have to be custom made, and cost $200 per wheel, which i thought wasnt to bad.
