Hey guys,
I've been looking around for some new rims for my Isuzu Gemini Coupe (opel kadett coupe for the euros) but am having a hard time finding anything decent in the 4x100 stud pattern. Everything I look at seems to come in 17"+ and a whole lot of chrome or "boy racer" styling. And if it does look good, it seems to be 4x114.3, RARR!!
I'm looking for something 15x7" or wider with a good amount of dish, and hopefully a black centre (with a chrome lip if possible).
Can you think of any good rims or manufacturers I might be over looking? Where do all those fantastiacally deep and cool looking rims on kadetts come from?!
Help!
Cheers Leon

Older BMW wheels (3 sereis and 02 series) are 4 on 100mm. See if anything turns up on those?

Something like this? tsw omega's, 4x100 15x7, rattlecan painted centres...... Either that or keep your eyes peeled for ATS / Mim / Borbet rims (or copies thereof!). They'll have the size, style and stud pattern that you need.

Even though they are not black centered, I do like the look of the ATS Cup rims! And they seem to come in the right stud pattern / offset! Will look into them whilst I keep looking.

Seconded! 6x14 'four spoke' or 7x15 'five spoke' Centres can be any colour you like Available in 4x100pcd, remember though you will require appropriate sleave nuts for these wheels (available form them and a good thought if you by second hand to make sure nuts come with them.)! Also have you thought about these? ...TSW Volcano, a bit modern I know but are available in 6.5x15 and may look good on some older stuff. Just thought

15" wide!? My mortgage for tubs never came through! There are heaps of cool rims floating around here, so hard to choose. A few good choices with the Braid rims, can't imagine they'd be too cheap tho either! I've also been milling around Yahoo Japan auctions, it's hard to spot the 4x100s withing in thousands of 114.3s but still a few good things. I'd love another (yes that's right, I gave some up) set of SSR Formula Mesh's, but this time ultra dished. And there's heaps on Yahoo, just all the wrong stud pattern!!! Noooice!

...apart from PCD size don't forget correct 'Offset' and centre 'bore' size of hub and wheel.

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts
