If you are in sydney I can show you.

i have re-painted them in a deeper darker metallic red.
But i am going to change back to the bright red when I need front and back tyres.

I normally like wheels with lots of dish as per my two VEs, but dish and fitting over the HSV brakes doesn't work. However, those look good! :goodjob:

If you go to the Bob Jane website they have an area where you select your car and the rim size and a list plus pictures of rims comes up. However they are not correct all the time.
I just got a set of staggered Speedy Integra rims in 19 for my Maloo, they look great and were reasonably priced.
