thats is my baby
sorry for the dodgy pics
but my camera's batteries nearly died :(
anyway my 21st just went past and my dad gave me a brouchre for some rims.
He pretty much said that i could choose a set from here and they would be mine :)
so my questions are
a TJ Magna stock size is 16" ?
is that correct ?
and also what would you guys suggest putting on me baby ?
ive been given this site to choose a set from
http://www.speedywheels.com.au/
im also thinking of getting a new set of tyres thats if i wish to go bigger, also any suggestions you boys would make for a fella who only has half an idea.
also that photo is like 2 months old when i first looked at it, those pictures dont do it any justice :(
When i had my VRX, i was going to put on the Scirocco II Machined mags..
They look horn..

Malibu Chrome look Good and I have to agree with the Scirroco's
Sphere's Would be Interesting but not sure how they would look..
I have always Wanted the Hyperfang 2's

AMG Conquests for me :)

You'll find most of them come with tyres.
Make sure you get 19's though!
18's just arent big enough anymore :cry:

mate just so that ur aware... some insurance companies have guidelines as to the max size of rims u can have. NRMA for example requires that the rims be no more than 7" wide and 2" greater in diameter over stock (in ur case 17" because stock TJs have 15" stock)
that means u can only have 17"x7". also note that the max size tyres u can have on 7" wide rims are 225/45/17... 235s on 7" wont be road legal.
given the above constraints... i reckon:
the lite 7 - frosted magnesium

or the murcury

I Looked at Sphere's for my ride after seeing the pick of them on the green holden in thier old pamphlet but after I saw them in the flesh I am glad i didn't...
