Wanted: OEM "Star" pattern wheels

PBR_Streetgang · 08-05-2003, 04:25 PM

Hello,

I have a '98 LTD and would really like to find a set of the alloy wheels that came stock on the '99-'01 LTD's and Highlanders. I don't like the last versions (of the 3rd gen.) that have the star pattern with a "crease" in each spoke.

If anyone is selling some, please email me at:
nine11always@yahoo.com

Many thanks!

check ebay. i see them there every 2 weeks or so.

By the way, where are you in LA? Also, love your nickname. One of my favorite movies but since tainted given Martin Sheen's off-screen wackiness.

Thanks, Bob.

I live in Brentwood. I've seen the wheels on eBay in the past, but not recently. Actually, the one's I remember seeing were chromed. I don't do chrome.

Thanks for the compliment as well. I too have to separate Sheen from his character. But at least back then he was an alcoholic with a heart condition. What's his excuse now?

PBR,

i had a 99, gave it to my bro (long story), but i bought a 98 to repalce it. i took what i liked from the 99, which was the wheels and the headlights, so yes i know what you like about the 5 spokes.

Also check the "for sale" section of this forum as well as outdoorwire.com.

You just missed one of our members (ctapia) who sold his 5 spoke wheels about a week ago.

dont worry, someone soon will sell.

i'm in glendale so we're not close but not too far.

I love the 5 spoke wheels also. Those wheels were also used on T-100 pickups. They were 15" wheels. I'm looking for a set of these to replace the 3 double spoke wheels on my wifes 98 LTD. The 15" wheels with a 31x 10.5 15 tire is exactly the same size as the stock tires on the 16" rim. The big difference is the 31" tires are about $40 cheaper per tire.
