    If you're in Vic, Tyre Factory can get you any wheel Tempe Tyres has on their site, which is much better dealing with someone first hand then someone interstate, can choose maybe a better tyre package, can trade in old wheels and can bargain down the set of wheels!!

    When I got my last set of 20's (July '07) I actually tried the above - even tried at 3 different Tyre factory outlets...

    Tempe were still ALOT cheaper, for the same rim/tyre wheel package, including the freight !!! they were even cheaper that what a good friend of mine who owns his own wheel shop could do...

    May or may not be a different story now, you'll just have to shop around and see the best deal you can get at the time that your in the market for a set Click here to enlarge

    They are simply sent away, the holes drilled to the right PCD in the existing holes, then high strength metal rings inserted into thes holes.

    Wheel Worx in Adelaide can get any rim to suit any car ( they have custum drills and set ups on site even bolt-on spacers if you need) cheaper than anyone I know of and I work in a tyre store. I would even say they are cheaper than tempe tyres Click here to enlarge
