Rays Engineering wheels
Hows it goin people,
Hopefully someone will be able to help me. The other day i hit one of me Rays engineering wheels or a kerb. The rim is damaged beyond repair. Because of the fact that these rims are a genuine split rim, i was wondering if a replacement rim could be sourced. If anyone knows somewhere that these can be got, any pointers would be appreciated. Cheers Mick |

Have a look at www.nengun.com
Without knowing the model, difficult to know whether it is still a current wheel or not. |

Cheers Nick
I'll check it out. Hopefully i'll be able to get just the outer rim itself. The spokes are not damaged and they are genuine split rims so i presume you can get the outer seperately. |

Need help
Right,
I've been looking around various sites with no joy. The wheel i'm looking for is a "Rays VRX Prize". I'm thinking that the wheel is gone out of production because i can't find it anywhere. What i was thinking though is that i could replace the rim as i think the spokes are fine. The wheel is 8" wide and it is 17" diameter. I presume that Rays can supply replacement rims for any wheel that they manufacture(d). Otherwise there would be alot of people with dodgy wheels. Please, please any help would be appreciated. |

this is a common problem for anyone with out of production wheels....
What i've seen some people do it either use the good ones as drift wheels, or buy 2 new wheels of a slightly different style... not much help i know. you could maybe try to find someone who speaks japanese and ask them to call/email rays and see how far you can get? |

Maybe worth an approach to http://www.prospec-ms.co.uk/ as they are official Rays importers....

very last resort maybe, this link shows Rays company address's in Japan, if anyone can help then maybe they will.
worth a try, could not find a email contact so snail mail would be best option.
