Anyone seen or heard of Apec wheels.
They have a small range but unsure of the unknown brands.
St George Tyres in Sydney (I think) supply them.
They look the part - imo.

They look good and I have seen them on a few cars in Melb, but I have a few reservations:

1. where are they made and to what standard;
2. the multifit stud pattern raises questions regarding their suitability for our cars ie is the offset the same/similar to factory rims;
3. availability 2,3 or 5 years down the track if you need to replace one.

BTW I got a good quote on a set of 19 x 8 & 19 x 9 ROH drift R's. According to ROH the 9's will just fit under the guards of a wagon. Might be worth a look.

I have had a set of Apec Apache 18's on my VS for about 3 months now, great looking rims, there made in Japan and use an inhex socket type nut, not standard, im very happy with them.

of all places, ebay :)
Price was right and they came with a good set of tyres, Nankang NS2's good place to deal with to
