New 17" rims for my HQ - Aussie V8 | Holden - Ford

SomerandomHQ · 06-08-2008, 02:00 PM

After 10months of waiting:

woooooo

Gees they look a treat I love the style of rim as the original size, but in 17" they look a damn side better again.

Who did you get them through? Was the 10 month wait due to the supplier or something else? And if you dont mind me asking how much did they set you back?

Oooh

Aaaah

Oooooooh

Love the wheels and the paint, but I am bias.

SUSPCT · 06-08-2008, 09:29 PM

long beach customs they look like

nice but heard of alot of ppl waiting up to a year for them.

Ic3y · 06-08-2008, 10:47 PM

I said it on oldholden and I'll say it here. Absolutely bloody fantastic wheels which match the car perfectly.

Karl_HQ · 07-08-2008, 09:24 AM

Yep, I'd say they are long beach customs... They are all alloy aren't they?

They have a website... :: Longbeach Custom | Oldskool Products ::

I've also seen steels made into 17's but they don't look as good as the the long beaches.
