i gotta make a decision soon so what you guys think of these

first is a pic of the rim by itself, it actualy extrudes from the rim which i know is abit dangerous as i will scratch them easily but i love them because they are different and chrome and then there is a pic of them on the car, what you think?

plus, read this.

"Most of you will have heard of these wheels. Amazingly enough all these wheels have been copied or imitated both throght the design and the names. Not only have our designs been imitated , our logos , our advertisements and even our websites. Thats where the introduction of our new logo came along...



Our wheels such as ALBA come with a triple chrome dipped 3 year warranty and a lifetime structual warranty. Other cheaper chrome wheels wheels on the market only come with 1 year warranty showing their weakness in quality."

and judgin by the fact the owner and managers pf ozzy speak to you like you are a human, and treat you like a customer is enough for me to reccomend them over anybody else in the sydney market.

I dont think they suit your car sorry. I am not sure what you should go for but I do know it's a hit or miss situation. Some wheels look like the car was born with them and some just look shocking!

I was worried with my choice and I couldnt even place the rim against the car becuse there was no rim at the time. I told friends and showed pictures and some liked and some hated but I decided to stick with my choice and I am glad i did.

SO DONT LET PEOPLE CHANGE YOUR MIND!

agreed......Volk's and Ray's engineering rims are expensive though...like $3k for 17in set....well worth it though; only weigh a fraction of normal alloys...
