i have a feeling he means an oem set, just a cheaper price... depending on how much shipping is would decide the price for me

yep the shipping from here is dearer than the rims, but there are more makinens here per perseon easilly. i know of 7 red makinens in my area and any ammount of white blue and silver models, shipping is the killer

roughly i reckon 350-400 euro. I say that because I have sent a set of AC schnitzer rims to San francisco from Ireland for 402 euro but they were 12.5 inch wide rears and 9.5 inch wide fronts which would be heavier than the makinen wheels.

just so we don't thread jack bc anymore can we move our discussion into my thread
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...6-project.html

because if the euro keeps dropping and equals out to 1 dollar i wouldn't mind spending 400 on wheels and 400 on shipping... so please take this discussion to my thread so we don't throw his off any more than we have lol

Up next, an alignment then the rear window gets installed. Also I'll be working on a front crash bar, it'll make the front bumper sit properly.
Dont forget the wide rear fenders. That is one very important distinguising mark of the CP9As over the CE9As (Evo IV)
