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

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 really like Trev's wheels...
(but that's not surprising...

)
HK centres, stock 5" rims reversed, 185/70 front; 7" with 215/70 rear

They do look great (if I don't say so myself

).

yeah Trev; thought you'd agree...
(underneath the baby moons are Hutty bullets for a quick change

)

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.
