Can anyone tell me where in Melb I can get some GTS rims made in Torry pattern for my flareless SS. I have Indy Pros on it, but I would like some 14 or 15" GTS rims aswell, dont want to go HQ stud pattern so anyone got some ideas?

I have been trying to locate some GTS style rims in Torry pattern, but I have only found then in 13". If they were available in 14" or 15", I'd probably be interested myself.

If you find them in 13's with torry pattern ,You could probably get a bigger band put on them from a wheel place such as Ajax wheels in morabbin. Not sure as what they can do with gts rims but I have seen them do interceptors with a 15 inch rim in torry pattern.

Edit: If you want their number to queiry them let me know

I know all about Ajax Wheels. We used them quite often. Did you know that a 16x6.5 AU steel rim can not only be widened to 16x8 but can also be converted to Torry pattern? I will probably be getting this done myself at some stage.

a mate of mine wanted some 15 inch gts rims for his monaro and had the inners put on on the 15 inch rims and they even made them with what ever offset he wanted. its got me buggered why he didnt just get those chevy (or is it pontiac, same thing) rims they are the same stud pattern and even look the same. any way because they are steelies you can have the welds ground out and remade to what ever specs you require

These days, those 15x6 steel GTS style rims are $145 each second hand. Then you have to pay to widen them. Gets a bit too expensive.
