Factory usually has the best range of rims to suit IMHO.

T3 wheels would be brilliant but Wheel King is now charging your first born for them, so unlikely.

Yes the rims on Poo's car were originally on mine but they were on a black ute when I had them so they looked a bit better.

Actually thinking about Starcorp Elipse's again but I agree with Maurie that something wish some nice dish would be alright - just don't know what. The Fusions have been done to death.

Agreed, they suit.

How about go to a wheel joint and have a look around, the polished deep dish looks good IMO

I like early BA mags. They suit my AU. Factory Tickfords like GK said would to.

Alright poo you have made your point. They do look good.

Starting to think the factory ones with SSL suspension might be the go. $2k worth of alloy heads might be better than new wheels

If they made copys of the series 2 tickford 17" wheel in 19" and 20" they would look tuff. I know I'd buy a set.

FG option 19's or the BF MKII GTP 19's (silver version of Dark Argents) would be good too.
