Love those rims...where did they come from?

They are Performance Superlite Classic wheels 15x6 (24P).

My understanding is that these are made in Australia but seem also to be available in the UK through Superlite

Yes - but McD's - that's not really food is it!

At 6am 100 km west of Melbourne there isn't anything else open - not quite Route 66.

Hi Mike,

I've been looking at replacing my standard steel wheels with the same type of wheels you have. Any problems with rubbing? What size of tyres are you using?

Cheers,

Vim, I am running Dunlop Direzza 205/50R/15 tires and have no problems but my car has a few modifications that assist. The lips on the front and rear mudguards (fenders) have been bent up 90 degrees. 3/4" sway bar and Moss coil over / Spax shockers front suspension. Rear axle has a Panard rod fitted. I think on a standard car you will have problems - normally 5.5" rims and 195/65/15 are about the limit.
