if your going to get them make sure you get the 9.5 inch rear wheels then you can put some decent size tyres on the rear!

It doesn't look like they sell them staggered?

my mate got aftermarket twistys and hit a pot hole at 60 and snapped a piece of the rims about 15 cm long and 6 wide, so watchout, these aftermarket ones can be really really bad, apprently theres a big courtcase against the company who makes them because they dont have any standards and are made crap.

Probably, but how will they chase company's in china? I've heard of quite a few cases from mates with Commodores but surprisingly very few on here of copies cracking or breaking. Weather the Dark Argent/GT rims are of better design or not I don't know but the company the OP was asking about appears to have a warranty so I think it would be worth the risk. As long as the warranty checks out.

Thanks for the replies!

Also to clarify, can I just receive these wheels, and chuck them on and good to go?

Or will I need to get a wheel balance? Also, will putting these on effect my speedo, does this need to be recalibrated at all?

Cheers!

St george tyres are trustworthy. They're not your average ebay seller operating out of their backyard , but a genuine tyre shop in Sydney.

They should come to you balanced.

Your speedo will be out by up to 4-5kmh at 100kmh. So if the speedo says your doing 100 you'll actually be going faster (with 245/35/20 tyres)
