    Unknown mags

    unknownmags.jpg

    I picked up these 8" mags for $200. Does anyone know what make they are? The only marking I can find is "Made in Australia" in the casting on the back.

    I want to try and source some caps.

    Look like ROH or CSA. There was another mob in SA too, but they look more like ROH.

    thanks mate,

    The HQ van sits pretty much at standard height. The GTS guards havn't been cut at all. Do you think they will cause me much grief with 245's?

    Backs should be OK with 245/50/14 as long as the offset isn't silly. I had a pair on the back of a HJ Belmont sedan and they scrubbed bad with 245/60/14 but were fine with 225/65/14. 245/50/14 might be OK. Fronts, forget it. Run 6's or 7's.

    Thanks Oz,

    They are not a stupid offset so I was hoping they would be ok. Was wondering what make so I could try and watch for some caps to come along.

    They look similar to ones a mate has on a HQ prem with a big block in it. He machined the inside on the front ones to sit further in and they are ok. Someone must of had the alloy professionally polished and they only have a few dings in them.
