    you can get 15" steelies in 4x100, and if you look OS (europe, uk) you can find 16" steelies in 4x100 too

    I have been doing some research on 16" steelies and I think new Holdens come with 16x6.5 4x100 et 32

    Will confirm. My Dad is on the case.

    Talking

    Mate I like the first link you posted. Clean 5 spoke are great. But honestly, what you like is what you like. Dont let anyone else decide for you. If you want it then get it, if you dont want it then dont get it. Its your car, your money and you have to live with it every day.
    I have some Simmons that look so bad it hurts me (They are gold and look like those crappy BBS things. Yech!) but they are a 3 piece, balanced race rim and go great. I couldnt pass them up coz they were only $400 with rubber. Who cares if they are gold. I also have a set of Enkei 12 spokes that I love. Go the Jap ricer race boy look! LOL
    MK1 floG soon to have 16v 2L with cable change gbox - need a 16v turbo manifold

    "Fit the gearbox ya bum." Loon - best post ever!

    thanks for the advice dude u r correct. i like a lot of the king wheels.... yeah they might pimp it more than classic it, but hey..... it will look sick either way!

    At the end of the day it is your car.
    But as most people are trying to sway you to make your car look good.

    those wheels you have chosen won't suit the car IMO, (and most people's opinion as well)

    Remember wheels make or break a car; you can make your car look good, sick or just plain bad ass from your wheel choice.
