Heya Everyone

Time for my first car mod. And damn is it a killer in price. There seems to be a special on the 19" Vapors at the moment so i'm looking them up. Why do the rims i like have to be so dear. I've been chasing rims for 6 months now and am deep in price searching at the moment. Thought i would post here if anyone knows of a better price or can get one and for anyone else who are interested in similar tyres.

So the plan is
ROH Vapor Shadow Chrome 19" with tyre package.

for car
2003 Sports AWD Pewter (in Perth so thats where i been looking or shipping too)

I'm also including the price of 18" for anyone interested in them

PRICES (so far)
---------------------------|18" Vapor-------------------------|19" Vapor------------------------
Wheels Direct.............$1480 (+ $99 shipping)Tyres NA..$1720 (+$75 shipping) Tyres NA
(ebay store - rims price only - adding tyres, fitting and balancing woudl add up to much)
Big O Tyres.................$did not ask.............................$2650 + Sumitomo tyres
(asking what this price includes exactly still - cheapest so far)
Capa.........................$no reply yet
(online capa.com.au)
Bob-Jane....................$2300 Maxxis Tyres...................$2800 + tyres i can't recall ;\
(gave discount on being a member of here and a bit of a nudge too :)
Tyre Factory................$2400 Unknown tyres................$ did not ask
(would match bob-jane but only matched when i first asked)

Anyone know of anywhere else i should ask?

For those who are interested in similar cheaper tyres. Tempetyres does the second image package 18" for I don't like it as much but other members may - and it saves $1,300 off the 19" vapors which is pretty damn huge)
18*8.0 Kspeed Shallen

If anyone knows of other similar looking tyres i'll look into them and get some prices too.

WEZ!

Do they come in 20s? They look mad

I found them first.. just.. theyre still on the shelf :P


Nice choice man.. Ive been pricing these for ages, and to be honest I havent found much better than that...

I had those 19" Roh's they look sweet as when there on and ya car is low as...but i went for the 20" chrome option looks choice.! but yeah i say go for em the 19's :D

Thanks Guys, Ya i love the look. I could handle them being deeper but they are pretty nice. I'm trying to go for a reasonably stock look so 18" was always the idea.

Anyway guys, SHOW ME PHOTOS :D

20's is just totally insane :)

the only thing i need to get is tyres with 95+ rating. I'll have to pursue that when i get a decent price point.

Mysti... Did you get better than that at all? Price followed by tyre quality is what i'm after. Started with $1500 budget :rant:

Heard back from Cappa,

4x 19" shadow Chrome Vapor Wheels $2,350
frieght to Perth $120

he then goes onto say that they don't distribute tyres and i'll have to get them fitted myself?
so as far as i can tell the $2,350 is for the rims only ¿¿¿¿

as far as i know Gremlin 19" are as big as they go.

they are designed to look pretty big anyway :) though i think that is a marketting ploy as you can tell when someone is driving on 20's as you can barely tell there are even tyres there.

Got Bob Jane to get the 19" Vapors for $2600 which is good :)

But they can't find any tyres load rated to fit the tyre: 245, 35, R19

I know people here have managed to find them so anyone can tell me the brand etc and i'll send that to bob jane to see what they can do.
