Buy a set of rims from the 2nd hand newspaper where you live and then paint them up yourself. I did this as a complete novice - see thread in the lounge - Novice Painting. Rims probably around $100/rim (unrestored)

The rims were good fun to learn about paints etc. You can perfect the painting on the back of the rims.

The only thing to look for when you purchase a set of rims is that they are obviously not buckled or dented or that the stud holes are not chopped out.

There are plenty of GTS rims around - all though need blasting and painting.

The only thing I had trouble with was the holden colour codes. The local auto paint shop spent a bit of time hunting around for the formula based on the codes that I had given them. I now have this info and will put up here when I decipher it.

If you want any info on the above feel free to either post here or pm me.

I'll put up some images of my rims when I can work out how to get the damn things off the new telephone.
