Mine were in perfect condition. Not even a scuff mark from having tyres fitted.

It only cost $200 to have them powder coated.



Ask anyone who doesn't like cars, just the fact your contemplating getting new wheels is a 'waste' ;)

Hi Stealthy,

Look great from what I can see!

Come to think of it, there is a powder coater over the road from my other half’s factory which they get to do work for them, so I could get them done pretty cheap I reckon!

I can have any 7" wide rims but if I want to go 8" (18" +) I can only put on HSV rims as my insurance company won't cover me otherwise!

You may say change insurance companies! I rang around and you will find that most won't cover you if you change wheel sizes! There must be so many people driving out there that may not be covered if they have a prang!

I have also noticed on some tyre seller's websites that they have a disclaimer saying to contact your insurer prior to purchasing wheels!

Hey there, I'm with AMMI with full car insurance and they cover me for every thing I have done to her inc the 19" wheels. And I've done a bit of stuff too and all they ask is that I phone them and let them know when I have done something so they can record it down.

I can't remember what they told me, come to think of it I am not sure if I even called them!

I get a pretty good discount with Allianz (a bit over $40 a month with agreed value), but I will call AAMI and see how I go....

My insurance wont cover my wheels. My car is still insured to have the wheels on, i just get standard wheels if the car is stolen.
