I'm curious; do you ship them as a sets or do you wait until you have a container full? :roll:

A new TheSamba.com Classified Ad has matched your alerts:
Link...... http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/ ... id=1990273
Section... Parts - Wheels/Tires
Title..... South African Sprintstar Rostyle wheel centers
Price..... $***
User...... Blitzkrieg_
EMail..... ilyimports@gmail.com
Phone #... 27723377263
Location.. Cape Town, South Africa, South Africa
Description:
For sale:

I have a set of 4x Rostyle wheel centers.

These can be easily rehooped into a set of barrels.

Would need a good sandblast or acid dip, but are straight and have no major catastrophic rust.

This is what you are getting:

4x wheel centers, guaranteed rebuildable - can be welded into other wheel barrels fairly easily.

4x brand new wheel center caps, chromed (Note, these need some fettling to fit, it's a snug fit, I normally file the inner of the wheel to make these snap in)

Shipping via AIRMAIL to the US/UK/Most Euro countries. This is normally 10 working days with a tracking number. I have shipped a lot of VW stuff worldwide with no issues using airmail.

I ship from South Africa, shipping is normally 2-4 days after receiving payment.

Payment is via PayPal or directly into my bank, whatever you are more comfortable with.

feel free to text/whatsapp or email me, I can provide more pics and as much info as you may need.

Sad tho, the REAL aircooled enthusiasts are very anti "our stock" leaving our shores, and yet it seems this is your livelyhood? Or am I mistaken?

Nope not my livelihood. Seems like everyone is too scared to go and confront the real exporters who are sending over containers of shit on a monthly basis, but will pick on me sending one or two sets. It's pathetic really.

It's a global marketplace...I import rare/unusual VW watercooled and Porsche parts from the US and other countries and not once did anyone ever moan or whine that I am taking away their stock :?

You gotta love the marketing strategy by the guys selling the repro Rostyles on TS... :lol:

(highlighted for you convenience)
Repop South African Sprint Stars Rostyle BUS Pics Price: 450 set
They are back! In an unheard of 6.5 rear. YES 6.5 rear......

Reproduction SA Sprint stars. No need to pay $1000 for bent up, needing paint steelies, get some nice new alloys bolt on ready.

These reproductions are near to the originals but are slightly different of course, to stream line the manufacturing process.

CENTER CAP IS CHROME, INCLUDED.

Available in 15x5 ET 14
and 15x6.5 ET 12

60 degree tapered lugs required. I apologize I CANNOT compete with the BIG sites on the price of lugs/studs youll have to re-use what you have or buy from them.

A few pics on various cars, but the red car is my personnel 62, short axle, you can see the 6.5 fits perfectly, and in front the car has dropped spindles and adjustable beam but is NOT narrowed, great fit. I'm running 155/60/15 and 195/65/15. I chose these mainly due to cost and availability. No special order tires here, fronts are front Smart car tires, rear are mk5 steel wheel VW tires.

$450 a set(+paypal+fedex ship NO BS box fees etc just straight shipping, tires of course NOT included) if you choose 2- 15x5 and 2- 15x6.5 OR 4- 15x5 whatever works for YOU.

I hope to personally check a long axle car with the 6.5 for fitment. (my ESTIMATE is if your 2+ splines the 6.5s with 195/65 will fit due to tuck, if your 1 spline you will have to go 185/60-ish)

BAY BUS--

-Clears rear snout and axle nut.
-6.5 will be VERY CLOSE on a lowered bus, lowered or not you will need a tire that fits square and does not sit over the lip.


SPLIT BUS--

-Clears rear snout and axle nut.
-6.5 will be CLOSE on a lowered bus, lowered or not you will need a tire that fits square and does not sit over the lip.

Pics are of the 6.5 with a 195/65, you can see very fat sidewalls.
The 5 fits great, lots of room for fatter tires, 185 should fit OK. It has a 155/60.
