    17" X 9" Cast Aluminum Rally II Wheels

    Hey all!!

    Havent seen these before but look rather nice...... being a fan of retrotech, these would look great on any Sandman!! Dont know about 17x9 on the front though!!

    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-17x9-...item484226172c

    If you scroll through the pic gallery down the page, you'll see they also have a HX LE Honeycomb style wheel in 17's......pretty cool!!

    Anyways...enjoy!

    Those 17 inch Honeycombs are making me all warm and fuzzy inside. I'd love a set for my HZGTS.

    Are these the guys that Oz was getting a shipment from for his race Torana?

    I wonder if they do 18x8?

    I emailed these guys last night before I saw this post, sorry, otherwise I would have asked for you.
    I am after the N90's that the company also sells as another item listed by them on Ebay which only come in 17" x 8" at the moment. N90's offer a back space of 5" or 4 1/4". I want these for my HJ van. Can anyone assist here as to which would be better to clear the guard? 5" or 41/4" backspace? The van is lowered at the moment. Thanks.

    my 14x8s hit the guard on full lock so no doubt 17x8s will too a lot of hot rodders use p76 discs to bring the wheel inboard about 10-15mm i have been told you can buy them new with HQ stud pattern

    Thanks for that,
    I was hoping that the offset may be able to get me out of trouble with the scraping though. At the moment I have 14 x 8 dragways on and I have gone to some fairly narrow rubber probably the narrowest I would be game to go and the wheels don't scrub at all on full lock. Would not test it jumping down a gutter on full lock though. She is low too, the guards come over the front tyres and rear is lowered 2" as well.
