hey guys, just wondering wheres the best place to pick up a set of new genuine 17" vr gts rims for a good price. i've tried wheel king (www.wheelking.com.au) and they've got a fairly good price (compared to holden's ~$2550 - and that's without caps) so anyone know somewhere i can find a better price or that's the best i'm gonna find? thanks.

yea well when i think about it, the gts rims suit it better. i had my heart on the vy ss rims, but they look too modern for the old style commodore. i was in cairns today, and i went to all the tyre places, and they said that only holden makes them genuine, therefore they can set whatever price they want - anything else would be some cheap aftermarket make. anyone who has had any dealings with this company, any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

yea... what's the difference between the gts and the senator rims (beside $500 - $1000 extra for the senator ones)?

no diff that i no of except that the GTS ones have a GTS sticker on them,
i was lucky and got a genuine set of a written off GTS for $600 and they are a nice rim in my opinion. The deal from wheelking is a good one!

VR GTS
GTS original with the sticker is actually coded to the car its put on at HSV and stamped.
I was thinking on selling mine as the previous owners gutter rashed them or get them repaired.
Same deal with front struts, coded to car i just keep them in the shed in case i sell the car and the buyer wants original gear with it.
