They call them "Passion 5" on the website, but i remember I saw them somewhere else and I downloded the pics on the rims and they were called apache...

I'm thinking they are going to need spacers too...

I've decided that the insane cost for Simmons is worth it in the end.. I haven't seen many other (easily accessible) rims that I like on the Staz.

Racer's are a ripoff of Lenso Shu's

Apache's are a ripoff of another Lenso rim I can't remember right now.

Apache - http://apecwheels.com.au/

When i was searching for 18's for my old mans rexie we got quotes for the Apache rim in 18 x 8 with 215/35/18 Nankag Tyres for 1400. 18 x 8 with 215/35/18 Pirelli tyres for 1700.

Pretty cheap. There located in NSW somewhere.

Hope this helps

These are nice rims but (17" x 7") $975 for a set.
But with the cost of spacers and tyres it's getting a bit out of the budget

I have seen the Apache rims (17" x 7") for $520 brand new which is great value...

I think they are about +40mm so will need a spacer between 20 and 25mm
