    Default Best rims on a VZ Calais?

    The 05 VZ Calais i'm looking at currently has WL Caprice wheels, they look alright but i'm thinking about upgrading to something a little sexier.

    Any suggestions/links to pics would be fantastic,

    Cheers

    If you have a calais im guessing your after a nice lookin cruiser... You could go with the VY Signature 19's (I know there common but they look good) or if your looking at 20's the Supersport wheels from Holden look great. Depends if you want aftermarket or genuine i guess.. Some 20inch Giovanna Dalar Black Wheels would look SiC on a Calais.
    If money is not so much an 'issue' there is a place in the US called "360 Forged" which make some of the best looking ive seen..

    yeah.. i also agree that the standard rims are the best suited.. however.. they are a tad to small. Which is why i was searching for rims which look a lot like the standard rims.. only bigger.. i have found these 'chopper' 20inch rims at st.george tyres. the chrome might not be to everyones taste.. its isnt my choice infact. but the rims do look kinda alright.

    It's silver with black leather interior, just has stock wheels on it atm. They look alright but a little small as someone above said ^

    HSV Sigs are very similar wheels but bigger so if you like the stock look but want bigger rims, they are the way to go. You can always change the centre caps to standard holden ones if you don't want the HSV badge on there.
