Willing to pickup or meet halfway anywhere in RI, CT, MA, or southern NH. I'm based in Providence, RI.

Looking for a clean set of factory WS6 rims for my '88 Formula. PM or reply to this thread and I'll get back to you.

Specifically this is what I need (attached pics are included for reference):

• 16x8 size
• 1 pair of front rims and 1 pair of rears (the offsets are different)
• WS6 center caps a plus, but if they're missing I'll source them myself
• lugs a bonus, but if they're missing or chewed up I'll source them myself
• clean = minimal defects, round, true, and hold air

 

There's a set for sale here on the board in NJ.

 

They're also available as a reproduction.

Just ordered a full set under $550 brand new. Cheaper than buying a used set and getting them refurbished.

 

Oh yeah, 129ea for new repro's isn't bad from what I've seen online. Thanks all

 

I have a set with caps for 350

 

Anyone have a pic of the back of the repop formula wheels?

 

Update: got a good deal on a set of 4 for $225 after agreeing to meet the seller at a halfway point. Subsequent victory car wash and Town Fair Tire spin balance included, I spent $300. Not bad. They're not perfect but definitely low-cost visual boost for the time being and good candidates for a refinish later.

The old rims on the car look pretty save-able now that I think of it. If I can get the messy rattlecan-black paint off them I think they might be even cleaner than the ones I just bought. I think the PO got in a fight with her dad (who painted the car) and he slapped the car together quick to get it out of his shop so she could sell - only explanation I can think of for a beautifully done body with rims covered in overspray / missing weatherstrip / bumpers that were never primed, just sprayed on naked plastic.

Looks good!

 

I'll take a pic of the backs soon. Here's a side by side I took...

 

Damn Formy wheels look sweet when they're shiny and new.
