[color=#000000ost_uid0]Okay so most of us dont have alot of cash. Mine comes in dribs and drabs so its hard to save for a nice set of wheels.

Anyone know or got some mags goin cheap. As much as I would love to fork out ~$2K for a new set of mags and rubber to suit, it just aint gonna happen.

Cheers[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid9]Hey Mal, what is the width of the 17" rims you've got?
17x7" or 17x7.5" ? ???

They look nice on an Astina! Remember seeing them in the issue of Hot4s for the whiteline suspension kit tested on your car! [/colorost_uid9]

[color=#000000ost_uid1]There 17" x 7.5". They dont foul on anything even at 3"
lowered and the offset sets them right out to the edge of
the guards.

Mal[/colorost_uid1]

but now brought in by Lenso. Called a DTM Executive.

[color=#000000ost_uid1]There Jynx's rims now, I cant really remember the offset
does 28 sound right. I know that they really pushed the
wheel out to the edge of the guard I could never really
understand how they didn't rub as they looked flush to the
car but never did and my guards are not lipped.
Lenso bring them in now so you can check if you want they
are the DTM Executive.

Regards

Mal[/colorost_uid1]
