    I have scrubbed a little bit. Only with a completely full tank of fuel, sub in the boot, a shit load of electrical cable in the boot and back seat for work and 2 18" wheels and tyres which are punctured. Even then I only scrub on big bumps/dips in the road.

    Also worth noting that they have the ah tyre size on them still which is bigger than the ts.

    Thanks for the offer, but I really want to stick with 17's for the car. If I could get a set I like the look of in 17x7.5 5x110 ET49 I would buy them in a heartbeat and slap some 214/40R17 tires on it and be happy, but so far it has proven difficult. A few are close matches but miss out on checking 1 or 2 boxes so it's just a matter of finding something that's close enough to the original dimensions that won't be an issue with any scrubbing or fouling.

    I have looked at Enkei, Rays/Volk, 5Ziggen, Work, OZ Racing and BBS. I either couldn't find a design I liked or else the wheel wasn't offered in a suitable spec. Some of them are admittedly hard to check out with poorly setup sites and spec sheets in another language or vague at best. So I may still hunt a bit deeper and try find if something will work. I will post up some designs later on with the style I'm after.

    Also have a look at ozzy tyres. If you find a set of wheels that you like they get blanks and drill them to a 5x110 stud pattern

    I think I'm going to contact these guys http://www.amgaustralia.com/ and http://www.jdmwheelimports.com.au/ to see what I can get through them. I don't know if they'd be able to get me blanks of one of the ones I like. Otherwise I'll also be looking at Team Dynamics, I know a few of you have them though so I don't want to jump the gun and copy you guys too quickly. Click here to enlarge

    These Enkei PF01SS in Matte Black would be my first choice.

    Closely followed by the OZ Racing ALLEGGERITA HLT in Matt Black

    I really like the pinched 10-spoke design of the Enkei ones though.
