G'day gang,
I'm trying to track down one or two (or more if I have to) of the above for my Hilux. They are as rare as the proverbial!!! - anyone got any or know of whre I can make enquiries.
I've tried all the obvious
places like the trading post,
classifieds, wreckers etc.
Thanks in advance,

I'm managed to get a couple of
mine through my local tyre place. He had a contact with another place that did a lot of work in people upgrading to alloy
wheels, who would trade-in / leave behind their old steel
wheels. Mind you this was before the new model came out.
I also managed to by 5 from a guy in the trading post. He had a van full of Prado and LC steel rims. His story was that he worked for a toyota dealer and was able to get them after upgrades to alloy
wheels.
I'm near
melbourne by the way.

I bought a brand new (still in the box) extra rim for my GXL a couple of years ago for $50, yes $50, from a 4WD wrecker out in the the Eastern suburbs of
Perth, Guilford/Midland way. Can't recall the name, but there were a few in the area.
Best of luck.

Hi there
My husband just bought a rim for our Prado from a wreckers in Midvale and he said they had just bought in another wrecked Prado from the goldfields. He can't remember the address but it is one street back from Farrell Rd in Midvale. Hope this helps.
Regards
Diana

Thanks to all for your responses.
Thanks Deesy, I went to that wrecker and got one for $125 (OUCH!!). That really annoyed me since I got the first four for $200 from the quokka. But, never the less, I now have a set of 5 and can change over.
Thanks again all.
