Hey.

 

I was wondering about interceptor rims...

 

 

This site says that commodores have 12cm pcd... the FAQ says KE70s have 114.3... I like the look of these wheels and if I remember correctly I think I've seen a ke30 or something sitting on them... it was the one for sale that was pictured next to the Harbour bridge... So what's the go? Do any rims exist that look like these that will fit on a KE70?

 

Cheers.

You use r31 skyline one's.

Townace (the one with the 7k in it) wheels supposedly fit. seen a pic of them on a ke30. Dunno wether the offset will suit a ke70

Townace ones don't have enough holes haha. I know that sounds stupid but I prefer the version with lots of holes haha.

 

Couldn't find any pics of r31 interceptors on google images?

Go to the wreckers and look in boots of R31s and Pintaras for the steelies. Skylines will be 15", Pintaras 14". You'll need to space the Skyline 15s out about 10-20mm, as they hit the brakes on a stock KE3x/5x/7x. I've never tried Pintara wheels.

You can also get steelies made up, with any size band (width) and center (PCD) you like. Call a drag racing engineering place, look in Street Machine magazine for ads. They won't be cheap though, you could buy 15" mags for less.

also some saab rims came out with a 4x114.4 PCD and only need a 8mm spacer on the front and no spacer on the rear with 195/50 tyres

 

so if you like the rims on my car start the local saab wreckers

Cheers for that info, Jamie! :bash:

 

Do you mean with wheel spacers? What's the deal with them (how much/where from/legal)? I've only read about them..

Woops only just saw your post haha.

 

For some reason I can't see any of your wheels, only your interior pics?

 

Cheers.

hhmm i don't think you should bother with them

Since you gave no explanation whatsoever I'm going to assume that's purely your opinion of them on a looks basis. :bash:

They would be the SAAB wheels. From what ive heard early ones came out 108pcd and later ones came out 114.5pcd

wheel spacers that just sit between the hub and wheel are illegal in all states i know of

 

you can get bolt-on spacers engineered, but these are usually quite thick, you'd change the wheel offset so much you'd be better off looking for front wheel drive steelies, perhaps from a honda or excel or something

I saw the monetary value in the R31 Interceptor/Chaser/Pursuit rims and decided to exploit it about 12 months ago.

I searched the local wreckers whenver i was there and eventually got 2 sets (8 rims). Each wheel set me back $20 ($80 set) and I sold each set on ebay for $350 ($350 x 2 = Profit).

 

I have one in my backyard....awaiting 3 of its friends.

 

They are extremely rare, and even more sought after. Goodluck with the hunt if you decide to go that path.
