i really hate to do this
 
I really dont like to put no bodies business out there like this but i have my back to the wall now.

Does anyone here on TST know a kid named JR REA???? i believe he is filipino with a nissan 240 (think he drifts as well) and from the philly or KOP area?

4 months ago he dropped off a set of wheels to get coated i called him when they were done and he said he was coming to pick them up at the end of the week. He never showed up and his number is disconected, I dont know if something happened to this kid or not since he has not tried to contact me at all about picking up his wheels.

If anyone knows how to get a hold of him please tell him to give me a buzz and let me know whats going on? even if its that he does not have the money to pay for them yet i need to know something i know times are tuff right now but i also got time and money in his wheels.

thanks.

HAHAHAH Sure am...always!

Nah, I'm not in the market for wheels for my S13. I'm just trying to help this guy out. It's not like he hasn't tried to get a hold of the dude over and over and over. He's obviously had them for quite a while. I'm sure him, like all of us could use the extra cash. I say let them loose. lol

93EGY8 01-15-2009 04:58 PM

agreed

LPC 01-15-2009 05:04 PM

93EGY8 01-15-2009 05:10 PM

twastheglow 01-15-2009 05:13 PM

twastheglow 01-15-2009 05:15 PM

Wow. :eek: They're not cheapo wheels either. And on top of that, they look damn nice.

Come on, you haven't gotten your hubby to do a 5-lug swap yet?!?!?!

CarbonIS 01-16-2009 11:39 AM

It's been 4 months. As far as I can see, that's abandonment. It's not like he hasn't tried in vain to get a hold of the guy. He needs to get paid for his service. No one seems to know of the owner so I say do what you've got to do...ie sell them.

CarbonIS 01-16-2009 11:59 AM

i understand, but when that time comes, i'm sure he'll make a for sale thread.
this thread is to try to find the guy and give him one last chance.

If I wanted to go 5 lug I would. I just don't see the point.

You'll see the point when you try to find wheels, and the only 4 lug wheels you can find are +45 offset.

Plus 5 lug has the Z32 brake upgrade.

420sx 01-16-2009 01:29 PM

Oh, and if these go for sale... I'll put a bid in. :D

The Captain 01-16-2009 01:32 PM

What are 240 5 bolt? 114.3?

These would look pretty sweet on my prelude....

Yeah, 114.3.

Might have trouble getting them onto a lude depending on the offset.

Yeah, good edit. Anyone can buy Rotas. Quality wheels are hard to find in 4lug though.


Although... Id do some unforgivable things for a set of Rota P45r's. :mrgreen:

jdmwill 01-16-2009 03:51 PM

funny i gonna order a set of these next week and i wanted them powder coated black. but now they offer 17x9.5 so i guess im ordering those pm me any info on the kid. if he is a drifter i'll know him.

silvialuvin 03-31-2009 10:59 PM
