icon3.gif  What Mags for a GZ20/MZ70 Soarer??? Mon, 17 March 2003 03:51 Go to next message
I've looked around and the only soarers i've seen have stock mags or ones that really dont suit the car. Anyone got any ideas/pics of nicely matched mags to go with the car?
I really like the look of Aventek M20's:
http://www.tyres.com/mag_details.cfm?id=1302
and the Gold chrome Titaniums: http://www.tyres.com/mag_details.cfm?id=1297

But what do you reckon they'd look like on a white soarer???

any thoughts/opinions will be taken into consideration. And any pics would be great.

Thanks in advance peoples.
Ben

I reckon some nice tough rims would suit the GZ/MZ20 Soarers... like BBS RS-II rims! Very Happy

Very tough looking on the old-school pimp mobile Very Happy

I've got Speedy Holotype-R's on mine in 17" by 7".
Brushed chrome finish.
5 wide spokes but softish lines.

I've got a pic but I'll need someone to host it for me.

The rims look very similar to Kahn RS-R rims.

Either that or I can just e-mail it. Very Happy

Sbyder and rvrolla - you have mail Very Happy

Of course thes rims were my second choice.
What I REALLY wanted were ROH Adrenaline in Shadow Chrome.

http://www.roh.com.au

and look in the new release wheels section.

At the time I wanted to buy, there was apparently no stock of that type of rim available in the country. Crying or Very Sad

But I'm still very happy with the Holotype-R's.

Good luck with finding the one you want.
BTW - getting a rear-drive +38-40mm offset may take a while.

VERY CHEAP! Only prob is they probly wont have the correct offset as you just mentioned. Sad

Thanks for that
Ben

Hehe, stop your bitching Very Happy

Try finding a decent non-custom wheel in 4x114.3 or 5x114.3 with like a +8mm offset!

Ye Gods Sbyder, that is cheap.
Mine set me back a little over $2000 in 17".
Mind you, I asked for Yokohama A539 tyres to go with them.

BTW, 18's are going to be a pretty tight fit.
I've seen one Soarer with 18" VX-1's on it.
Looked horn with the guards TOTALLY filled and only a little rubbing on full lock.

re: justcallmefrank - Z20 Soarers have same offset and PCD as AU Falcon.
Makes life fractionally easier, even though not many people actually bought an AU........ Rolling Eyes

Oh, and thanks for the nice comments.

Yeah, but even with a 5-stud conversion, the only thing similar was an EL onwards Falcon, but pretty much every rim for them was custom or looked crap...I was going to get Holotypes because they came in the right offset too Smile

The AU has a really common offset/PCD, there are SHITELOADS of rims that should fit your car!

Just looked at the pic again, they look really good on your car Very Happy
