Wanted: set of Deli wheels (15" x 6")

Alright Delicans, I need to buy or borrow a set of wheels for my L300. I just drove the Langley and back again for a set that didn't fit. Should have confirmed the hub size.

Here's the deal:

Painting the Delica, the wheels must be black.

I have a set of 5 chrome Toyota steel wheels which I would sandblast, prime and paint. So I need 4 wheels to put on the van for the duration. Ideally with rubber on them already. So, #1 option cheapo Deli wheels with cheapo rubber on them, sell me or lend me.

UNLESS

I can find a set of wheels that are a better choice for painting, then I'll just put the uber strong Toyo wheels to use elsewhere. #2 option - sell me some badass wheels for painting.

OR

If I find a set of appropriate wheels already black, my life is made that much easier. #3 option - I buy black wheels.

Why don't you just by the standard black craggar wheels (wagon wheels) that everyone has (the ones with the blue and red pinstripe) they are only $85 or so each.... Probably almost the same as painting. And sell your other rims?

A-Scott in Surrey has tons of sets of rims in the back. They go for about $15-$25 each. Most of the sets are 4 , the odd pairings with a huge selection of 1 offs.

Summit Racing has wheels for about $75 each. However, since I am already painting the vehicle and other pieces, the paint cost is nil.

I have a few lines on cheap rims however I would then have to pay to move my good tires around.

My primary goal is to get a spare set to use while I'm prepping and painting the Toyo wheels. They will be masked; its just something to roll the vehicle around on.

I meant to tell you you could borrow my summers (but they are around 31.5 and my fenders are trimmed to clear them so I figure they will not work for ya)

If you do borrow them I have to put my kids bed on blocks that is funny

I have a set of 15" rims that came on my L400; not sure if they would fit, but they have Kumho summer rubber 235/75R15 on them; you are welcome to borrow them as they are currently occupying a corner of my folk's shed in Cloverdale.
