F.S in CT... RARE 3 piece O.Z. Fittipaldi's

[highbody]

+i bought 4 new rs lips 1'' all the way around, pluss the 4 stock lips(which 2 are bent)

+stainless steal bolts (which are bbs pattern, so a 8/10mm will fit) you dont need a special tool.. ill send the stock bolts too

+ 4 centers and the 4 barrels that are in great condition, just need to be stripped and painted

the ET is the same at 28

i believe the rims are the same 15x7 (stock has a 1.5 reverse lip, and the new lips are 1 inch, the .5 is reversed(which i believe only goes in .25 inches and then out .25 inches to make the .5 inch.. but im not positive.. ill check that tonight, because now im wondering if the wheels are now 15x7.5)

[Massive Lee]

OZ wheels have 7mm bolts. Not 8 or 10.

"Reversed" doesn't work as you explain it. If you have swapped the 1.5" lips for 1" units, and that the wheels were originally 7" wide, then your "new" wheels are now 6.5"

Therefore, I am interested in the centers and the barrels. I would need to buy 2.5" or 3" lips. What's your price? BTW I don't use stainless steel fasteners on wheels. Shinny but no good. They snap. I already have 100s of proper OZ fasteners.

no reverse lips work exactly how i explained it

I have the same wheels in 5 lug and love em. Still refinishing them for spring. Do you have the OZ bolt tool? After I'm done with my tools I'd sell/rent them to somebody if they ended up buying these.

Also if you keep an eye out, the OZ centers from some similar looking 1 piece fittipaldis work on these and should be cheaper and easier to find.

i know what i payed?? how i payed is irrelevant bacause i traded items to get them.. so then you would have to figuer how much vw parts are to this person.. not trying to look like a ass... but ive baught new lips, rented the special tool for removing the bolts, removed the bolts and pita to remove sealent from under the reverse lips.. and i just baught brand new bbs stainless steel bolts...
just the money ive spent on these items make up half of my asking cost alone..


MOSSMAN-
i actually just heard last week that oz fittipaldi one piece centers fit.. i also heard that there is a newer style oz wheel that the centercap fits on these.. the opening is 6.25.. ive been trying to do a little reasearch on them, to track them down

I have 3 caps from the one piece wheels. I also have 4 of the one piece wheels for sale. I might be able to track down the 4th cap.

Well if as you show it, both lips end up at the same height, then one is NOT 1" and the other 1.5". They both are the same width. Just different shapes.

eather way then they are still 15x7's.... i always told they were 1.5 reverse lips...


thanks for the offer on the wheels... but i have a offer of bbs rms on the table... but i just really need the money right now

Uh. Not really. Here's quoting you.

... i baught MINT stock 1 inch BBS RS lips and NEW stainless steal bolts(no nuts yet) i will include the stock 1 1/2 inch reverse lips

[z31maniac]

OP doesn't understand that different size lips change width and offset.

Awesome.

how does it change? the pic shows that the wheels are the same...
the reverse lips are the same as the bbs lips

if the reverse lips are technically called "1 inch reverse" then im sorry, what i was told is wrong..

Hey guys: all good questions, inquiries and debates about what bolt is best, etc. Let's give a fellow newby a break. We are all smarter than the next, right? Bump for a good set of wheels, even if the asking price is high...

[Massive Lee]

Hi Martin

Price is high indeed. But the info is pretty thin and conflicting, showing the seller's lack of expertise when it comes to wheels. All flags for caution. And I wouldn't even run those wheels without unmounting and remounting the halves myself.

The wheels are probably worth $300 to $400 max to somebody who knows how to refurbish them. Not $1200.

Sincerely

Lee
