Hi all,
last weekend some total knacker stole my pride and joy a '93 Eunos . Luckily I got it back but they managed to do quite a bit of damage. I'm going to need a new lock set and repair to the roof where they gained access, but thats not the worst of it. The worst thing is they buckled my rear alloy. Now the wheels were on the car when I bought it and I have seen pictures of the same wheels on other Mark 1 cars so i'm thinking they may have come as part of a special edition. My problem is I dont know where i'll be able to get a replacement. I have attached a link to a photo, hopefully someone out there knows of a wheel somewhere that is going spare. I dont mind paying for it but if its too expensive i'll just go for a full new set.

Help me out if you can guys. Its bad enough having to get all the work done without having this to worry about.

Hi dan, sorry to hear that you car got stolen, glad to hear you got it back all be with a bit of damage. As for the alloys yeah they are indeed bbs alloys, quite a few 5's came with them but you don't see to many sold as singles.
You could try www.Tranors.co.uk (best to ring them) or possibly mazdameathman on here.

Welcome to the forum. Stick around plenty planned for the summer when you'll be back zooming again.

D, sad to head about your loss/damage was it insured, i have the full lock set covers that those s~~m usually destroy, i can set you up with hood/ all the bits you need to disguise her as non stolen recovered, i only break complete cars, that bbs i can get from the factory shiny and new, or i have a wheel wizard that will put yours right, unless its ground down or has split core, or if you dont want the hassle I have a black S spec fresh from japan Eunos that has never been abused, stolen recovered repaired tend to give gearbox/Diff/final drive/overheating problems if they have been redlined P

Dan, damn thieving *^$%^£, sorry to hear that. I think I might have a spare BBS alloy knocking around, I picked a couple up years ago for just such an event (I have a 93 S Special with those wheels too). From what I remember it would probably benefit from a refurb but it would at least be straight.

Got sorted guys. The cars nearly back on the road now, just finishing the lock set today.
