Found an interesting replica, not 17" but worth a mention I thought:

Yea, that deep dish would look awesome with some low profiles if you were going for a street ralley look (old Martini cars come to mind).
Those 5x100 Porsche replica mags... I saw them last night. If they are still available when I get back in Jan I'll go have a look. I dont have enough money in SA right now to buy them offhand. Still hoping the exchange rate will swing a little over the next month.

I went to go and see a 924 that had a set of these on and they looked wicked. Anyone have a set for sale?

From fastest to slowest:

Birkin race car, not much is standard
Lotus Elise 111R, almost everything is standard
'75 SP 1600 with a few mods
B8 A4 Avant tdi, towing made easy

Tony, I saw an advert in one of the VW mags about a year ago for a set of Iron Cross wheels.....new ones. They were 4x100 pattern I think and looked amazing! I'll try and find them and post a picture!

haikona.... really not keen on those.

I'll be going to Autostyle on Friday hopefully to check out their stocks. If not, I am sure I can source something decent in CPT once I arrive
