OK guys.I need some help here.
I've just come back from the local wheel/tyre place armed with about 10 (!) brochures on mag wheels.
TO get to the point....I just can't make my mind up about what type to replace my stockies with. Has anyone seen/know of the names and possible web sites that have mags displayed so you can actually see what they look like on the actuall car???

 

heya,
just go to second hand places. in perth we got some that are big warehouses full of second hand and new mags, and they are heaps cheaper then professional tyre pro's. tell them what car you have and they'll take you to a section and show you stacks of wheels. a lot of the wheels in brochures won't fit your car..

 

Here are a few sites:
www.factorydirecttyres.com.au
www.ozwheels.com.au
www.weststatetyres.com.au (Perth based)

As for seeing the rims on your car, there's only a very few sites (if any) that has that feature, which usually doesn't have the rims you're looking for. Photochopping would be your best bet.

Also, most rim manufactureres make their rims for both 4 and 5 stud patterns. So pick the rims you like, then ask the shop if they make it for your car's stud pattern.

Good luck

 

if you go into Bob Jane Tmart, they have this really cool program on their computers, where you tell them your make,model colour etc of your car, and then you just pick out a wheel and it brings up a picture of what it looks like on your car. it is worth having a look at, even if you dont purchase from them, as it gives a really good idea of what wheels will suit your car. thats what i did anyway, and i think it makes the choosing process WAY easier.

Good luck.
