I have heard about the camira, calibra mas that fit, and also the BMW. But the problem is I want something a little bigger, better and different. I don't mind paying a little so long as they look good.
Little help? |

i am told that big mags, ie over 16x6.5 inches will be too big for the guards so i say you get which ever ones have four studs and an offset less than 20-25 you like the most at that size and then get them chromed or in chrome if possible. theres a good chroming shop on south road in SA but i forget the name. i dont know, you may be able to go bigger but i hope i helped |

Simmons B45 or V5 are the best damned mags - they might be an old design now, but old designs usually suit older cars better.
Old cars need a mag with a rim around it such as a Simmons wheel. I detest ROH Reflexes on old cars because they are a one-piece wheel with no outer rim - they don't suit - they look better on a Daewoo that doesn't have any sharp edges elsewhere on the car.
ROH Gamblers look pretty nice - especially when polished.
But my personal favourite are the Centreline Billett range. Check out the Centreline Prowler - killer!
A good set of second hand 15" Simmons B45s should only cost about $900-$1200 in Adelaide depending on condition.
Centreline Prowlers go for about $300-$400 each new.
Don't get smooth ROHs or Auscars. They're poo. |
