timbo A few members have bought 17" formula mesh from Chris neale, his website isn't great but he's really helpful if you ring him. https://www.chrisnealewheels.com.au/
Spac I recently bought some custom drilled wheels from BSA in Sydney. Wheels are Chinese, but the work, service and price were all excellent.
GingerNinja Gumtree is my favourite. I've found some great ones there but it takes patience and you need to know what you're looking for.
Klaptrap24 I've purchased 15x10 -26 Superlite wheels to run on the front of my old wagon; very well priced and the wheels were of good quality. They came quite quickly, drilled to 5x108 and volvo centrebore
GingerNinja Ticktock Did you have to do much work to the guards to get a 15x10 to work.Yes. All the work.
Klaptrap24 Ticktock Did you have to do much work to the guards to get a 15x10 to work.uhhh yes it wasn’t pretty ... pliers to pull out the inner lip of the fenders then I used interior rubbers and glued them on along the rough edge
Roinik @Klaptrap24 did you have to get a special socket for the wheel nuts? I have a similar tight fit when I mount mine.
ljk346 17x8 +0 (same front and rear) from Chris Neale also225/45R17 tyressome neg camber and guard rolling on front to fit with no rubbingrear guards had to be cut away quite a lot to fit without rubbing
oldman Chris is telling me that 17x8 0offset will fit with no wheel arch mods..maybe I just go 7” but yours looks good
Spac 17x9 took a lot of messing around to get the scrubbing to a bearable level on the back of my old GT.With 235mm wide tyres, they'd scrub on both the inner guard and on the (heavily folded) outer lip.
