billet wheels arnt generally stocked as most of them are custom ordered offset's etc,
BUT showwheels are your best bet.
www.showwheels.com.au

be prepared to pay BIG $$$ :shock:

Try emailing Billet in the US.
Their shipping prices aren't too bad.

Try Budnik Wheels USA, they have a dealer in NSW. http://www.budnik.com.au/

They make awesome wheels but fairly expensive.

I priced some for a friend last year and they were only about $300 in shipping.
It's worth going straight to the source!

yeah im not expecting any change from 8k for 20inch rims.
just want somthing different to everyone else now days.

[Da Burb]

I guess I'm lucky. I have a buddy in the US who is going to send me a set of 22" for the Burb for just the cost of shipping.
Brand new with tyres...FREE!
He has a booth at SEMA each year and they dump/give away wheels and tyres rather than cart them back to LA. Crazy huh!
He offered me 24 or 26. They're just TOO big.
You should be able to get some wheels for half what you're expecting...Oz dollar is still pretty good right now.
The killer will be the tyres here!

show wheels are around 950 a wheel no tyre for 20's
boyd coddington are around 1300 for 22's no tyre no shipping if that helps any.

I'm pretty sure my buddy got quoted $275 per wheel and around $300 for shipping all 4 from Billet Specialties in the US.
Might pay to drop them an email.

[Da Burb]

I can't remember but the company is 'Billet Specialties'.
I emailed them for him and they were great with the information and more than happy to ship.

[hyperss82]

'Billet Specialties' tried there webpage about 750 for 20x8.5 and 900 for 20x10snot to bad only $100 cheaper

With the current exchange rate it would pay to look directly at the manufacturer/supplier in the states. I imagine there is a fair mark up over here especially now.

I have a mate that was looking at importing boats - there are a lot of things that are becoming very viable for the short term which can certainly benefit from.

I agree. Nice to be different and Billet wheels will really change the look of your car. I went through Ziggy's Hot Rods in Sydney (they are dealer for Budnik Wheels Aust.) Not cheap, not quick, But the wheels are unreal. Well worth the wait. Dont forget you can buy a ticket for a chance to win some of these Budnik Billet Wheels at Cruise for Charity this year. Hope this helps.

Rocket Industries in NSW sells billet wheels too. They seem to be well priced with most of their stuff, especially if its trade.

check their website
