Are there any specialist wheel companies in the UK that have contact/can import Rays alloy wheels?

 

Reason I ask is that my Zed is missing a centre cap. Now the dealer is seeing what he can do with his contacts over there.

 

If he has no joy, my only options are to 'try' and contact them myself in Japan (Blackmagic already tried...and had little luck). Or to try and find a specialist Jap tuners that can get in contact with them and order through them.

 

Any ideas?

 

Ta

ive tried my self and its not easy mate to get hold of rays bits unless the wheels are

still in production.

 

I did have a link to a rays seller ill see if i can find it.

Thanks pal. I've just spoken to Nemesis performance and they don't deal them, but they said a company called 'CordSport' do in Dudley. Can't seem to find a listing for them though....

I think the is a Mitsubishi dealer in Dudley, West Midlands possibly called RalliArt. I was looking for wheels and I'm sure they had a 350Z with a set on Rays on it.

You could try HighLine Performance in Cardiff as the owner is Japanese and travels to and fro quite a bit....

 

I've not used them myself yet but seem to be fairly reasonable on most requests i've thrown there way so far..

Now called Xtreme Automobiles. 01384 216101.

Now I have read the name CordSport I think that might be the shop underneath at the rear of Xtreme. Co-ord Sport I think it is but they will know if you ring them.

Thanks guys...getting somewhere already...I'll give them a go. :)

01384216102 Co-ord motorsport. Yeah, called them and they are part of the same company. Need to call back tomorrow.

These are the only people who can officially import them into the UK :)

Spanking!!! Many thanks. :)

Only thing I'm concerned about is the fact that my wheels may be long out of production and therefore, the chances of being able to get the centre cap might be very slim indeed. :(

Alternatively they may be a standard size and you just get four new ones that match!

Maybe, I only need the one and it's mirror polished too. But yeah, maybe they do other styles that match the wheel...ie the centre boss being different etc.

How did you go with Coord Sport?

Bugger. No joy I'm afraid. Rays have stopped making that centre cap....now what do I do?

 

Might just take them all off and get a billet alloy cap made for the hole....would rather have the other centre cap though.

 

Grrrrrrrr, well peed off!

Anyone reckon a specialist company could make me one if they took moulds from one of the other centre caps?

Sorry to bump this. Can anyone else help or offer advice? Even if it is the large centre nut only as I can probably get the little fascia dish 'cloned' somehow.

 

Have tried everything.

 

Funksi...What exactly are you after? the centre nut or metal disc? or both?

 

An engineering co. might be able to make you one up (pricy for a one off though).

 

The old man has a small workshop at home (Lathes, miller and surface grinder) he might be able to make a light steel one up, but suspect these are alloy and merely for "Show" and he might need differnt tooling and cutters for alloy/aluminium like that i suspect??..i'll ask

 

...is it threaded or push on? Can you whip one of and post some pics? PM me and i'll speak to him about it..

I think Si has sorted it now bud he is bidding on a Japanese Ebay Auction for one.
