Post by brido » Thu Jul 08, 2010 9:28 pm

Has anyone used them and if so what did you think of them, I looking for a nc35 rear wheel but they are hard to get so seen the Delkevic whells and was wondering if they are okay or do they have any drawbacks?

I bought one of their front wheels and found the fit and finish to be the same quality as an OEM wheel. I tried to buy a 17" rear wheel without any luck. I was told they aren't producing them anymore, however that could just be for Australia, UK might be a different story.

Royster, can you confirm the width of you're Delkevic rim? They do still sell them in the US and I mailed the guy (ebay seller) about shipping costs. I also asked him to confirm the size as I wanted to be sure I'd get 17". USPS postage charges were mental, cheaper to get one shipped from the UK but for size he said "I think they are 5.5x17" whereas I was expecting stock 4.5" rim width. The Delkevic site just says "direct replacement" with no size stated. Cheers.
