Yeah, dunno why the Rally cars have 4-stud rims FWDboy, you'd think that more studs would be stronger! I've been told that some rims aren't made in 5x100 because the small stud-centre-diameter leaves too small a gap between the wheel studs and the centre hub, making the rim centre prone to cracking and breaking.
Sweeto Toobs - what rimz do you currently have? I'm thinking 5 rims too, as it'd cheap piece of mind at only $230 extra.
Yo Classique! there's a second hand set of the OZ Racing here: http://www.option1garage.com.au/xxwheels.htm
But they're in 4x114.3 hubs, and 16"x16.5" - $780 2nd hand. If ONLY they were 5x100 and 17"x7" I'd be rolling on some stylin' muddaPhreakin rimz. BooYAH!
I've asked in 3 different wheel stores about the O.Z. Racing Chrono Evolution - the road car interpretation of their famous 5-spoke Racing wheels. Forged, super-lightweight (for non-magnesium alloy) and Smooooth....
Available in practically all stud patterns, at around $700 per wheel!!!! WITHOUT TYRES!
And Toof- at that price, tha O.Z. Racing wheels would WANT to be lighter and stronger than cast wheels that cost 1/3 the price!! The Lenso VPD's are lighter than most cast wheels I've seen though - 17lbs (7.6kg) per wheel in 17x7inch.
What stud pattern is your ST167, drift_spec ? I'll be getting 5x100mm if I get enough orders.
Price I've been quoted is $1500 for a set with tyres. The rims are approx. $230 each.
