Powderpuff Posted June 22, 2000 Share Posted June 22, 2000 Sorry to disappoint you Mr Wong, but I'm currently trying to loose the xs weight gain from the Lamongerie trip! If there are going to be R500's in class 5 in August we need to be the weight of Kate Moss. Maybe you should consider joining me on the power to weight improvement program if you are thinking about beating the lightweight V7 SLR in a few weeks! Andy, is Marcus paying you a commission for putting in his wheel order? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c831gkl Posted June 23, 2000 Share Posted June 23, 2000 Rob, Sorry to muck you about, but if the wheels are avalable in black w/polished rims then (dependent upon additional cost) that's what I'd ideally like. Is this an option? Thanks once again for all your efforts! Kevin Thomas kevin.thomas@bigfoot.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Winterberg Posted June 23, 2000 Share Posted June 23, 2000 Hi Alex, bit confused, why do you want 3 or 4? 2 I can understand, 4 I can understand, but 3...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted June 23, 2000 Share Posted June 23, 2000 Use the spare as the fourth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Morris Posted June 23, 2000 Share Posted June 23, 2000 that 35 wheels to date. I will enquire about the colours, live axle & 7" rims in respect of cost and avaiability. However, being as these are the same as Caterham use I don't see a problem. I intend to keep the list open for one week )i.e. close off date Friday 30th. Following this date I will require addresses and monies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Wong1697456877 Posted June 24, 2000 Author Share Posted June 24, 2000 Steve, Have you ever seen a Grinnell accelerate? I thought having three wheels would give me more acceleration. Then again, have you ever seen one corner? No, neither have I. I'm not sure if they can without falling over. I've had one customer who was in a Grinnell that fell over. Anyway, I was going to use my spare as a forth wheel but as it's been painted, I figured I should probably try to not mix it with some new wheels. It's got to be pretty! My car doesn't have age to give it it's grace unlike your car! smile.gif Alex Wong alex.wong@lotus7club.co.uk www.alexwong.net Home : 44-(0)121-440 6972 Fax : 44-(0)121-440 4601 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VC Posted June 24, 2000 Share Posted June 24, 2000 Put me down for 4 please - Ford centres, 6x13. P.S. Great idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VC Posted June 24, 2000 Share Posted June 24, 2000 Further to the above I would be interested in tyres too .... is there a bulk deal going on these? I would be interested in A032R's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Dent Posted June 25, 2000 Share Posted June 25, 2000 I am in the same situation that I need some new rubber for Le Sept. Will there be a bulk rubber purchase arranged? A set of 21s or 32s would suit. A new set of wheels will have to wait until the engine is back in the car. Andrew Dent C7 LOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S33VEN Posted June 26, 2000 Share Posted June 26, 2000 Hi Alex, I am very new to this, but would be happy to buy four off Minilite style wheels, two 6in and two 7in. Help me a bit, I have a 2000 de dion. I understand these are what we all need? Also very interested in tyres at the same time or later! Should I buy a spare, or carry my 14inch and hope I don't need to use it! Tony Stattersfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted June 27, 2000 Share Posted June 27, 2000 If this offer is still open I'd also like 4x 13in wheels for a 1994 de dion. Like you 2x7 inch and 2x6 inch would be ideal. I'm in Jersey so don't pay VAT. If you tell me where they will be, I can arrange to have them collected. Cheers Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gridgway Posted June 27, 2000 Share Posted June 27, 2000 I would be interested in 2 6" & 2 7" 97 DD. I need to confirm that the CR500 fronts and rears fit these sizes though (the standard R500 wheels are 6.5 & 8.5 I think)- anyone any idea?

mark.hall Posted June 28, 2000 Share Posted June 28, 2000 If it's not too late, put me down for four. 6x13, Ford pcd and (rwd)offset. I haven't read all the other postings, so this may have been asked already, but; what are the chances of chasing a larger discount, seeing as we have a fairly substantial order on our (their) hands.

stephen ashurst1 Posted June 28, 2000 Share Posted June 28, 2000 Put me down for 5, 2 x 7" and 3 x 6" , yoko 032R would be the tyre choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Morris Posted June 29, 2000 Share Posted June 29, 2000 Thats 78 wheels if everbody trumps up the cash and all the various styles and sizes are available. I will enquire about additional discount just prior to placing the finallised order. May I sugest that should there be a small reduction in cost that we donate the sum to Nuke Luke? as this would enable the order / receipt of goods to be perfomed quicker and reduce the amount of stress on me with ordering, postage, delivery, refunds etc. As you will all apreciate this is now becoming a very large project. Likewise any additional discount would be minor to the individal, but could mount up to be a reasonable sum if combined? I in tend to generate an order confirmation sheet for all would be purchasers to fill out (i.e. qtys, coulour, size, fitment, delivery / collection, address, land line contact No, inc. cost etc). In the interest of security I suggest that each of you email me direct so that I can return the basic form for compleation. This form will aid me to compile a full order list of an agreed specification (it will also stop any crying about changes of mind i.e. colour etc after the order has been placed). The sheet will contain my home address for forwarding of cheques and enable individuals to decide about collection / delivery (Royal mail parcel force price yet to be obtained) If you have any concerns please feel free to contact me by phone. You will find my number in Low Flying, either just inside front cover or listed under "Shropshire Area Organiser". Hope that this all makes sense!
