Hi all, heres a quick pic of my 1500 im currently rebuilding.
i'm having trouble deciding on wheels for it, so i need some opinions. The wheels im looking at are,
1. BRM's
2. Sprintstars.
3. 2 litre porsche.
planning on running 195/65/15 tyres.
if anyone can use photoshop and can fit those wheels to it please have a go.

Also. So those of you know what wheels he is talking about. Here they are.
Everyone should vote for the Sprintstars!
Mate I love the original widened wheels with a nice cap. I had the identical car same colour with the widened wheels and it looks great still see it around Newcastle but he has painted them black and looks ok if not the sprintstars are my pick

Might i throw another suggestion your way? I just bought these for the baja from a mob i brisbane named koya. Custom bolt pattern and offsets, in a 6.5 or 7.5 rim. black or gunmetal center $900 delivered to newcastle. They are only 15's and look like the old empis with a new flare.

My vote is for the sprint star wheels; below is bugselecta; not photoshop but it gives an idea
Quick question; what do you want to do with the car? Race, daily drive or show pony? I would have thought figuring that out will help you.
Personally I like the 4 bolt gasburners, but 2litre wheels also look awesome. 馃槑

thanks for the input everyone, its a tough decision. i really like the 2 litre wheels.
im going to use the car mainly for bitumen motorsport now, and i really want to take it to the drags at Warwick, maybe not this year but perhaps 2014.
Vman, can you put the 2 litre porsche wheels on my car. the brms look awesome but are the 5 stud ones unfortunately.

I'd suggest you stick with what you've got now then. Get it going and once you know what you need, then upgrade. Most of these wheels are not going to be ideally suited to motorsport anyway. They'll all be a bit on the heavy side. Keep an eye out for some genuine porsche 2 litre wheels.

Pete, im not really worried about the weight, i have enough HP to overcome that, well enough for now. I only plan on doing some motorkhanas.
It's going to be nice when its finished but no show car.
The wheels that are on it at the moment are 7" rims and 2 of them are an inch outside the guards so i want to stay with the 5.5" rims. i already have a set of Empi 8's that used to be on it, but they are now on my super.
