Where to find a rim for a 710K in sweden?

Post by markv »

Hi everyone

Any ideas where or how I might find a rim for a 710K in Sweden please???

Its for a spare, it could be from anywhere provided it's cheap to ship to Southern Sweden (though a local place would be great) and it could be from any vehicle provided it's compatible enough to get me to the next tyre shop.

Thanks
Mark

Check for a ford transit wheel - they fit on the older Pinzgauers with the 5x160 bolt pattern.

Thanks, I found the thread on transit wheels:

viewtopic.php?f=15&t=11002&start=0

And the important pinned post on lug nuts for transit wheels (don't use the standard ones):

The newer transit wheels use standard type lug nuts - but "cone" type instead of the stock "ball" type.

These guys list brand new euro style transit wheels at half the price of Tunershop who ship for free worldwide but their website doesn't seem to work once at checkout. Also the contact page doesn't offer any means of contact.
Has anyone on the board actually dealt with these guys? I just wanted to get a shipping quote for 8 rims to Australia before I order from Tunershop's website but I can't get a message out to them.
Seems crazy to spend double on the purchase price, but it seems that might be the cheapest option once time wasted is considered.
Any ideas on how to reach out to them would be much appreciated. Cheers

I have purchased my wheels there. Checkout was no issue, and (unfortunately :-) ) they also charged my mastercard.
The tyres where delivered within 3 working days.

The small print at the bottom says ontact to the company AD Tyres can be established via E-Mail cm@adtyre.com or the ticket system at https://www.reifenleader.de/kontakt
