Hi all,

I'm looking to put 15" hotwires on my newly acquired LX Torana. Preferably looking at getting 15x10 for the rears and 15x8 or 15x7 for the fronts.

Whose a good manufacturer of these wheels these days?
I've noticed two makes of this style, Performance and OS Formula. Anyone have any experience with these or can they recommend any others?
Performance: https://rover.ebay.c...tm/123623136874

OS Formula:

Also, can anyone advise what backspace/offset I should be getting for both front and rears?
My rear guards are cut but not sure how much they need to be cut to fit 10" wheels (it currently has 9" wheels on it). Also has a 9" diff with hq studs and I believe diff is standard length.

Cheers
