    Yer thanks mate, she is damn tidy. I was thinking about changing the rims to some machine finished 8 spoke 19's that are for sale around the corner from me for $800. what do you suggest.

    I dunno, so many different rims out there, im just not a fan of full chrome rims, maybe some sort of spoked rim, with black or white spokes with chrome/polished dish...

    They would look better the ones you have on it, the red would go well with the red pinstripe

    yer tru how much ya reckon is a good price for em? absolutely no gutter rash at all, front tyres have been driven on for a week, backs are prob 40% and missing 2 center caps. only a tiny bit of spotty oxidization has happened right in the corner of the dish.

    If it were mine I'd put the VT SS wheels on it.

    Something about later model factory wheels on Commodores just works.
