N47HAN Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 To all who responded to the last thread I posted about this , thx. Ive recently bought a set from Bkk ( a place near On Nut ). 20" complete with spinner and low profile tyres 100,000 Baht. Traded in my old wheels and tyres ( Hilux) gave me 34,000 for the set. ( know they were worth more , but was just easier to let the garage have them than go to the hassle of selling them myself for a few quid more) So 66,000 Baht for the set. Thought was a good price. ESPECIALLY IF YOU CONSIDER that in Phuket ( where I live ) they were asking 120,000 inc trade in !!!!!! And They were 18" !!!!! (not a bad mark up ! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N47HAN Posted June 21, 2007 Author Share Posted June 21, 2007 Hi Manit center max Phuket town, 20" spinner 68.000 with trade in from Fortuner sounds better , no doubt a case of "oh farang" lets double the price then > P.s the place i went to originally in phuket was the large goodyear place heading towards phuket town on your right , if coming from thalang. Still 2k cheaper in bkk though Good job it wasnt a speical trip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinLOS Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 From the description that is Manit !! Also anyone know of a place called 'Phuket Alloy' in Phuket town ?? I need / want to have some rims that have a scuff / kerb mark (not me) repaired and also polished / bead blasted.. Thais keep telling me that 'phuket alloy' does this but I can never find the ###### place !! I also want some center caps (either VW or BBS) but not one of the alloy shops will sell me center caps, order them, or help in any way.. I have stopped and asked in pretty much every tyre and wheel shop around and dont mind paying over the odds for them.. Found some nasty plastic mitsu ones just to hide the holes !! hel_l any dark / carbon look / emblem would be better than mistu ones on a VW golf !!

Gary A Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 When I first saw that post, I thought to myself that Spinners went out years ago along with the fuzzy dice. I guess you have to be a LITTLE older to know what fuzzy dice and spinners were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDRIDER Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Spinners are just as bad as that other aftermarket boo-boo; the three spoke alloy.It's just wrong. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
