Not to mention that australia now has the highest per capita of obese people.

I dunno. I've seen the ptotential for a hot flat bodyf ro a while now. I'm buying a 85.05 today just to build up for a race car or funs tripped down street car. I wanted the 4 lug wheels, but I suppose I can always convert to 4 lug later. hat group a car definately inspired me. Anyone have some pictures of the suspension and what not they used on that car. Wonder if it was a rack or steering box.

Ok ok I apologise, didn't mean to offend anyone.. well.. i did.. but not the yanks who grace our forum.. thank you all for attending :beer

i figured no obese people come to this forum, since it'd be hard to drive a starion and have a belly large enough to be called obese :P

lol, might i ask why you want 4 lug wheels?

it's funny.. we always want what we can't have.. down under we want 5 lug.. up there you want 4 lug..

It's nearly impossible to find a 4 stud wheel with a low offset.
You're forced to spend your life searching ebay, forums and yahoo japan looking for 2nd hand wheels that might fit! or $3,000 on a set of Simmons! :drool:

^^ I guess that's true for Australia. I find it easier to find sweet 80s jap style low offset wheels in 4x114.3mm than 5x114.3mm in NZ. The low offset 5 stud wheels seem to be the typical rubbish like chromies etc for Commonwhores and Falcoons etc.

Lucky for us (and probably the States) there are heaps of AE86s, S13 Silvias and other common 4x114.3mm RWD 'drift' cars around so there's heaps of wheels to choose from.

Where do you typically find them?
Got any links to examples of these wheels?
