Anyone here work in Formula 1?

RickHondaR · 15th August 2012, 18:42

Does anyone here work in formula 1 or for a team supplier? the reason I ask is because I am after a Formula 1 wheel rim to make a coffee table to go with my new CTR office seat and suppliers of these bump the price very heavily.

All I am after is a very good condition F1 wheel rim (prefer one that does not need painting) can be any team as long as its good, I did think of using a EP3 alloy but these sit very low so not really ideal.

Mods please feel free to move this to the wanted section if needed and will quote now just in case

Seen the ramble on ebay to expensive as i have seen decent rim fetch well under £100 in the past, i would rather just buy a rim as i have a few ideas to add that bit extra.

One thought was a ctr drive shaft, hub, disc and caliper with rim but this would cost a fortune and still need work to create a proper finish
