Is there any where where you can still purchuse simmons wheels. I heard they shut down a while ago. But just thought id try.

Or even a company that makes a good quality copy if there is such a thing.

Would love a set of 20in fr19's.

Any help is good help.

No more overpriced than the originals were when I recently enquired with Tempe...

Yeah they're only about $50 more per rim that what they used to be? They're not a cheap wheel. For a tiny bit less I'd go for some BBS wheels from www.amgaustralia.com

IMO they're not overpriced for a 3 piece wheel. People just seem to be dismissing them as overpriced as they expect them to be dirt cheap being a 'replica' but they're still a genuine 3 piece wheel and from what I hear, stronger than the originals. You will always pay a premium for 3 piece wheels whether they're 'originals' or 'replicas'. Afterall, they are the original moulds... If they were a 1 piece replica than they would/could be really cheap but they are still a very good quality wheel, hence the higher price tag.

Best to ring Tempe and ask...
FR19's were $950-1000 (per wheel only) depending on width.
As I said, not dirt cheap but still reasonably priced for a 3 piece wheel. Price up some 3 piece MOZ's and you'll get where i'm coming from.

The FR20's still use the same centre with a bigger lip I believe?
