FS: 17x7 Motegi MR1 wheels 4x108/4x100 bronze +42

[Colin]

I realize this is my first post - I don't mean to impose, but Pappy recommended I post these here after he saw my ad on MN Sport Compacts. If posting in the classifieds with no post history is inappropriate, feel free to delete this.



Here's what I'm hocking:

- four 17x7 Motegi MR-1 wheels in bronze
- dual drilled for 4x108mm and 4x100mm
- ET42 offset

Some of the decorative fake bolt heads around the edges are missing.

Send me a PM or email or call me (Colin) at (320) 333-7880 if you're interested. The wheels are located near St. Cloud, but I'm down in the cities every Sunday so transportation is available.

$250 OBO (Tires not included.)







Thanks for looking.

Interesting Merkur, any details on the car?

Good luck on selling the wheels.

16 valve Volvo head
Megasquirt n Spark Extra
Holset HX35 turbo on a custom split scroll header
Cosworth intake manifold on Volvo flange
NPR intercooler
8.8 IRS with Eaton posi and 3.27 gears
T5 tranny
big brakes
etc, etc, etc

Those wheels got replaced by these when I did a 5x114.3 conversion using Scorpio parts.

I thought I'd seen your car before, I've seen that pic somewhere.

I used to work at Quality Lincoln Mercury back in the late early to mid '90's and I used to work on those things all the time, we had a pretty large Merkur customer base.

Neat cars.

UNPOSSIBLE. Merkurs never break!

Those are nice looking wheels, any idea on how much they weigh?

[Colin]

Quite a bit.

Right

I will say that overall they were pretty decent cars though, no major issues unless you include the full interior leather recall

[Colin]

Ahh, yeah.. those leather interiors were awful. Thankfully, mine is cloth.

full interior leather recall???????? Tell me more.

[Monkey-Gein]

[Colin]

The leather was really crappy.. it cracked and the seams would split.
