Looking for some minilites? who has a set, what size and where did you get them... what should I expect to pay for a set?

Anyone want to sell some?

:shock:

hi, i was after set of minilites and enquired about them at my local alloy shop and they quoted me Ã‚Â£240 for a set of 4 in alloy. apparently its Ã‚Â£10 per wheel for a different colour.

hope this gives you an idea of cost. i thought that was a good price.

i could possibly get a phone no. for you? not sure how much they would charge to deliver tho.

Have a look on www.minisport.com

Sometimes they do great bundle prices on wheels!

And have many sizes.

Hi Paul, i have a set of KN Minotaur wheels on my Bis. Theres a picture of them on the Tyresave website, and a link to it in the list of links featured on the club homepage. my set are 5x12" and cost me Ã‚Â£265.00, i ordered mine direct from KN, but i had to wait 5 weeks for them to be cast because they were drilled at the factory to fit the 126, and they didnt have any black ones in stock when i first ordered them. They were worth the wait though. Be careful when buying your tyres for them if you opt for that size though: budget ones tend to rub on the arches when steering at full lock.

i have minator's too think they cost around Ã‚Â£400 with falken tyres. cant remember where i got them but they came fairly quickly.
I am still considering selling mine to get some cromodoras. They are a year old and the tyres are still really good. not quite sure yet.
