Rev5 vs Rev3 wheels

[wenguin]

Hi guys

Thinking about picking up a set of rev5 alloys to replace my Rev3 ones. Will the tyres be a direct swap? Only put T1Rs on the rev3 last year, want to keep if possible.

Also, anyone know the going rate for a set of rev5 without tyres? Not seen too many for sale recently.

Cheers

Yes, they will be a straight swap

Not sure on the going rate though, looking on eBay I'd guess this is somewhere close:

or these with a refurb would be the best option:

refurbs in powdercoat would generally cost you around £40 a wheel for an example

You'll need new short wheel nuts. The Rev3 nuts will be functionally fine, your wheels won't come off, but it will look a bit stupid because they will be very long.

You need a shorter set for the fronts the rears are deeper so cover it up

Good info, everyday is a learning day

For info

Rev2 will use the long nuts as well, won't it? As they have the same wheels.

cheers fellas. my rev3 nuts 'will do' until i can get rev5 ones, they'll just look a bit odd right?

Celica Gen7 nuts will also work on the front.
