at work someone works on jedis, long story short theres 2 spare forumla jedi billet 3 peice wheels 13" x 6 with semi- worn avon slicks on them, he said 100 quid and there yours, have been told they are definitly mini fitment but i dont know anything about jedis myself. so any1 know anything about formula jedis? im thinking 100 quid for those is a good deal...

like the front wheels on this:

I would say a good price if they have the right offset.

yes im not sure on the offset, im only thinking of having them for dragstrip use, unless i can stumble across another 2. i have however seen some jedis running miilites so the pcd will most probably be mini pcd. i think i will take an old drive flange with me just to make sure :)

mini is 4x 4" or 4x 100.6mm so sounds promising,

even if you find the offset is too much you can always chuck them on ebay, i'm sure you'd make your money back

For some reason Jedis use bits of Mini drive train so I wouldn't be surprised if the wheels are the same PCB as a Mini.

viola :)





they are mini fitment :)

in generally good nick but i think i wil take them apart and polish the 3 bits up so they are shining, the avons have a fair amount of tread left aswell so will last me more than a few strip runs.

if any happens to find another 2 please let me know as id love a full set *wink*

id love a couple more but they are sepcific to the jedi race series (and only as front wheels) so are hard to come across second hand, and new you looking at 350-400+ per wheel :(.

cheers for the compliment tho :) they will be even nicer when they have been uber polished *wink*

Rick, i know its only what youv' been told ,but anyone who tells you they are paying £350 for a 6x13" three piece wheel is either stupid, loaded or bullshitting,

the only chance youd get away with that kind of money is if they had magnesium centres which they clearly do not,
