ellis Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Managed to bust a rear wheel today after over zealous mini roundabout incident so am looking either for a 2nd hand set of 19" Wheelmania Vortex R wheels or a new set of different entirely! Have put a post up in 'Wanted' but if anybody knows of a set (or even a couple of wheels) of these for sale, please let me know. Also, anybody with a set of 19s they might be selling, let me know as well. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like it when people own up to bieng a tit instead of blaming it on the roundabout jumping out at them lol:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellis Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 Update with pics! Now before you all start, a lot of the damage was done after the smack as I had to drive 300 yards down the road to get it to a spot where the flatbed could recover the car! Still not pretty though! http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/6383/bust.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy-m2 Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I'd be interested in taking the others off your hands if you do change your mind... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 I'd be interested in taking the others off your hands if you do change your mind... Sounds like a plan - Wheelmania haven't got any Vortex R 9.5" rears in and have no plans to get any in in the near future - nice! So when I change the other 3 will be up for grabs!

ellis Posted March 26, 2009 Author Share Posted March 26, 2009 Managed to jack the car up and get the fubar'd wheel off the other night and gently slip on the spare. Does show that there is a bit of bendage there to say the least so it'll be off to the garage for a touch of fixing. Lord alone knows whats bent, buckled or busted! http://img403.imageshack.us/img403/3329/bents.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
