Yeah I wasn't feeling them either. That means the only other retail option is this

surely there are rims for sale on TM that suit? 17" and 35p offset should be reasonably common? Or is it the staggered set thats hard to come across?

any rim with fake dish and massive curved in spokes like the above rim is a fail I reckon, they just don't look as tough as the rims you have on at the moment.

though, if I had to get new style rims I would get these

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 457145.htm

They come staggered in 17x9 and 17x10.. perfect!

Are people not concerned with wheel weight these days?!?!

he wants black center wheels.

From what I have seen there aint a real lot available in black and in the fitment required.

those that are buy work,rays,ssr

Brand new i have sold 1 set in the last year.

I guess the $$ is a far more deciding factor these days.

(I have a set of regamasters thanks to a toyspeed member)

Can centres not easily be sprayed black if need be? I reckon gunmetal doesn't look out of place on a black car.

compared to rays they are still bricks.

the advanti stage won't go without spacers and guard work either.

Yea, thats what I wanted to get for the MR2, but this set of RP03's came along very cheap. They're a bit scuffed up, but I'll get them cleaned up and powder coated.

sw20 + widebody + rp03? Don't spose you're painting it silver?
