Philippines Vendors

Hello everyone,

I'm planning on getting some rims in the Philippines. I was wondering if anyone knows any vendors in the Philippines or a website?

Thanks for your help.

Many of my friends have gone home to buy Rotas, apparently you can get in touch with them directly for such stuff.

Are you planning on going there and getting the rims, or ordering it and having it shipped to you??

Hey Telly,

You said your friends have gotten rims from that site you listed. Can you tell me if the price is good (CND) and if they got it with rubber?

Thanks

Your Girlfriend can try going to this city called "Banaue," if she's staying by the greater Manila area. This city is like the Mecca of car parts (some items are stolen from other cars. But what do you care, right?) You might be able to score some very rare used JDM wheels and other items for a very cheap price, as it is easier to export items from Japan to the Phil. due to the very weak smuggling laws. Some shops also sell used mugen headers, and JDM engines, again for a cheap price. My cousin bought a set of RS watanabe wheels and a MoMo steering wheel for his ae86 before. just remember to use Taxi cab services going there, because the place is famous for stolen car parts.

dude I feel bad for your girl those rims are gonna be heavy. and most of them doesnt come with tires. You still have to buy your tires here or wherever you live for it doesnt fit in the balikbayan box bwahaha. My friend bought some rims back home as well he ended up paying more there rather than getting it here. cost him more than mine I got 17' Motegi Rims DP12 gloss black. I would recommend you buying the rims where you live right now. And just get some headers there or some steering wheels knock off momo sell back here you gonna make lot of mulas!!!! hahahaha

lol. My dad's ex-gf Carmen is from there (RIP), well her best friend is the president. One day she hands me the phone, shows me a picture of whom I am speaking with. I decided to be a flirt, and soon afterwards, I found out whom I was speaking with. Boy was I embarassed. Well her family owns a lot of factories over there, I can ask for any info if you need something.

I'm acutally going to the philippines now, with my girl. So hopefully, the weight, will be ok between the both of us. Also, I have lots of family there and they own shops and know lots of places to get the rims/rubber. But thanks for your concern. I might get some headers too, thanks
