    Umm, what makes you think Holden made them? It just says that they fit a whole bunch of Commodores. It doesn't say anywhere that they were.

    On top of that, I don't think they look that great.

    EDIT: just saw the concept car, but I still doubt Holden would be making or distributing these. The site has "The Wheelsking" all over it.

    Gee's I think if you saw them on the shelf @ a wheel shop you would'nt even consider them - but seeing them fitted on that car shot they look great .... yeah I agree with RJK I doubt they a genuine holden - but whats that matter anyway !

    i think most modern holden mags have the logo plastered in the centre, so i dont think thats an offical holden rim.

    Nah, they're a reproduction of the wheels on the Coupe 60. Notice the fake plastic V8 supercar style single stud that covers the real hub? Definitely not something Holden would do...not to mention that I don't recall ever seeing these wheels come as a factory option on any Holden. have to say though...apart from that fake single stud (which looks like pure rice if you ask me), they do look good.

    I love it when these sorts of ads say "fits all Commodores".

    Depending on the stud hole diameter, they may not fit pre VE's, their centre holes won't fit all models legally and no matter how you try, they will never fit four cylindere Commo's.

    Whats wrong with Wheel king? One of the few places you can buy OEM wheels and know your getting the real deal.

    Absolutely. I purchased my factory wheels from them and knew I was getting the real deal. Very comforting and the prices are not unreasonable for many styles.

    i dont like them at all but i suppose it just my personal preference and the listing seems to say nothing about being designed by holden or genuine holden just that they fit a heap of different make and model cars so i doubt theyre holden rims

    Personal preference hey guys.. I was actually considering them for my car even no they are not genuine. They would be worth a *** load if they were genuine seeing Holden only most likely has one or two sets for the Coupe60 proto type.. But they are pretty good copies if you ask me.
