In NZ HSV wont sell you HSV parts unless you have an HSV build number to show them... so anyone just cant rock on in there and pick up a set of 20" HSV rims, but I guess things are different in OZ

go to the accesories page on the holden website and you can browse through the wheel options for some models. they seem to cheap though? can anyone get that price or only if you buy a vehicle. you can get 20's with tyres and fitting only $1749 (smaller wheels less again) Quote: 20" x 8" �SuperSport20" alloy wheels - $ 1749.00* Completely transform the look of your car with the extreme 20" x 8" open design 10-spoke alloy wheels.

the stud pattern is the same its just the offset which is different and were the centercap goes just needs to be drilled or machined out Quote: VE Commodore wheels on a VL Turbo ?? Fitted some 19inch VE SSV Rims to my car yesterday.... A certain Holden engineer has choosen to make the hub diameter different on VE wheels so people don’t put them on old commodores to protect VE resale value etc….. Well the VE has officially been on sale for 2 days and i've already put a set on my VLT Have to machine hub area on the wheel on a lathe to enable them to fit on a VB - VZ commodore...... like said in this thread here http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showth...t=ve+wheels+vl (http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=84656&highlight=ve+wheels+vl) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yeh its $1749 when buying a new car cos you don't get the original wheels as well, Your not getting charged for fitting cos the car can't role of the assembly line without them.

So I am guessing they would be double that price
