Alternative Wheels

[S600VXR]

Anybody got some pictures of alternative wheels they have fitted to their cars? Nothing to bling just wider and matched to the cars.

Here are a couple of wheels available through Tim at Linden Special Vehicles, you can have standard 8” rims or 9.5” rims for the rear, both are 19” wheels I think, not cheap but quality and warranted for HSV applications, lot of OEM suppliers will not do this for the HSV






BTW I am not associated with LSV

Been looking for 20s for ages - hardly anything out there (stud pattern seems to be the case). Could spend £4000/£5000 easily though...

I like the top wheels!

Any idea roughly how much?

[S600VXR]

I-Forged will make you wheels with what ever offset you want and in any stud pattern. Since nothing seems to be out there then I will go back to these people but they do charge 2.5k ish and take a few months to come through.

Wow I LIKE those! I wonder if I could get them with a charcoal or dark smoke effect...
Have you or will you be ordering these? Would there be any saving if bought bulk (2 orders together)?

what is the stud pattern 5x120.65 ?

I found Alex at http://www.luxurywheels.co.uk/ very helpful


these are standard TSW's http://www.tsw-wheels.co.uk/?section=16&wheel_...

Will 9.5" fit under the rear arches?

I don't know if the Maloo has the same suspension set up as VZ SS utes but a friend and myself went for wheel upgrades at the same time, he went for the 19 x 9.5 rear and I went to 18 x 9.5.
I can tell you the 19's with 30 profiles gave a very harsh ride,break away was less predictable and the axle tramp was rampant.
Just my 2p worth
