Hey all,

I would like to set my car up with similar looking wheels to the ones on this ute;

Would they just be stock steelies with a dress rim and the moon caps?

Cheers,
Ash

Not the best pic but could be smoothies check here http://www.antiquetyres.com.au and select wheels. should be able to get them from most rod shops. Only thing is they are multi fit HQ and &*#@.

They're definitely not smoothies, the baby moons would not sit out so much if they were. Smoothies have a smaller mooncap that sits inside a raised lip.

They would be HT HG rims I recon.
Mine are HK with a similar look.

Hey cheers all.

I saw those ebay rims but an trying to get away from the full chrome look. ;-)
I've currently got chrome torana rims with the stock EJ hub caps.
They also scrub a bit at full lock which isn't ideal.

I have just had my modified HT wheels sandblasted and painted for my EK sedan. Painted with some leftover FJ paint in a spray booth with 2 pac.

Will look good on the EK.
