Nice to see a clear view of the rim. <_< Looks like a US sourced rim. If I had a CLEAR photo of the rim ONLY, that would make life a lot easier.

If you want anything like what's on that HQ, then you better be willing to spend money. They look imported to me, and that means you tell them what offset, diameter and width you want, along with stud pattern and they make it to suit.

If you want nice expensive wheels... somewhere like http://wheelboyz.com might be worth having a browse through. As far as I know most nice big wheels for Toranas are custom orders, even Convo Pros and WELDs and all that kinda stuff.

Lexa if they are a centreline rim give the guy at ausam a call.
I have cenreline billets on my torana, and everyone said they didn't do them in torry stud pattern so he has them made in the states and shipped over, and without to much extra on the original price.
His phone no. is 0408 530 190. Hope this helps.

Cheers Chris.

He actually works from his own garage in Patterson Lakes in Vic.
He has a very good setup there where he also fits tyres and balances wheels, and thats how you get them. From memory balancing was all free of charge.

You're talking to a man who spent 21 years in the tyre industry. I can fit and balance anything I want anytime for free. Good thing the guy is local to me, because I'd be interested in a set.
