RobD7 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 One of my alloys is suffering from a bit of corrosion so before I go down the route of getting it refurbished I wanted to explore the option of just getting a new one as I'm not sure I can be bothered with the hassle of not having a wheel for a few days! I have had a quote from Nissan but it's a pretty horrific price! So if anyone can source one or has one then please let me know how much you want for it? Thanks very much, Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarnie Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 How can Nissan give a quote for discontinued wheels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD7 Posted July 5, 2012 Author Share Posted July 5, 2012 Have just pm'd Alex, thanks. Sarnie, they simply said they'd look into it and then a few days later they said there were still some kicking around so to speak in various places so they could source one for me. From your response I'm assuming when I went to order they would say actually it can't be done! Interesting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebized Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Is it a front or rear one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 I hear that these do corrode quite often, that's why mine are powdercoated. you could try a mobile wheel refurbishers, would be less hassle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Nissan can still get these in. I contacted them about a new set. They offered a discounted price of around 600 a wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much everyone I have rung won't touch them because of their polished finish! Try spit and polish in Tonbridge http://www.spitandpolish.co.uk/faq.html Apparently they can sort out diamond cut wheels. Probably who i'm gonna take my LMGT4's to when they need doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
