What size are you looking for??

Is this for your Poraga???

How "wide" are your guards???

You need to "fill" the guards to make it look good

For my 2c i would change to Porsche

Get new rotors and drums

V Force has a set of Ceyene 18's 2nd hand at the moment. A tad scratched but nothing really worh the worry.

they would fill the guards no worries.

Otherwise if you want bling - go the Ford / holden route.

Just trail fit / test / measure

get the offset right so you dont have spacers.
get the outside of the wheel almost flush with the guard

Use EA-EF Ford wheels on redrilled hubs. They have an offset of 6P. Fills wide guards REAL well

Hey Sharon,

You dont need an adapter babe. I bought blank hubs and redrilled them to the commodore 5 stud pattern. These were purchased from V-Force. I drilled them myself, but you really have to get the measurements right before drilling them! I did this while also doing my disc brake conversion which is using the the EA falcon setup. It would be easier for you to look into the blank hubs, then get the right offset for the wheels...

Or you could re-drill for 100PCDx4 and run just about any wheel thats out there!... Thats a very common PCD for the 'fast four' crowd, which means the wheel choice is huge and the ET is perfect for dubs.... I have 17x7.5's under my Squareback and they fit a treat.... But then again if you went with 100PCDx5 you have all the late model 'Ricer' rims to choose from too.... And the widths just go up and up from there.... And that may be a better choice for fibreglass guards.... Pick the rims you want, make sure the off-set (ET) will work without adapters (very illegal to run them) and get your brakes modded to suit....
FUCH your early!
