Hi Guys

While talking to my tyre supplier in Perth, they advised me that a company called Performance Wheels can customize Rims to suit most applications, this includes offsets and stud patterns ect. I was quoted $150 each rim for the superlite :D , but you would have to confirm with your own supplier.
here's the link www.performancewheels.com.au

is that $150 per rim for the customisation or $150 each per rim cause $600 for a set of wheels is dam cheap. also what size superlite was $150?

according to the site they dont do superlites in 16"?
[edit] further investigations proves that they do indeed do em in 16x7[/edit]
the titans looks nice tho, in 17x7.5... i wonder if they would do em in a 4 stud with about a 30mm offset...

while talking to the dealer in Perth he did say that they can customize most of the rims.

Maybe the best thing to do is contact them direct, and ask the question with the rim your looking at.

The superlites do come in 16 x 7 as you said, I have a brochure that confirms it.

sorry to be annoying but the ones that were quoted were http://www.performancewheels.com.au/ima ... wheels.jpg not http://www.performancewheels.com.au/ima ... wheels.jpg cause the 2nd ones look like crap, the sites not 100% clear, but the way i read it the 16x7 were the 1st ones.
