Hey all interested readers! I would like to buy a set of 16" or 17" Simmons wheels for my UC. I like V5's, and dont mind the FR range also (and OM range)! I dont have flares and it is lowered, so no wider than 8" (enough to fit a 225 on the front and 245 on the back)!
Would like either silver/chrome centres or gold centres and it does not matter if they come with tyres!!
I will pay the right price (cash too) if you have the right goods!
Keith

hey keith
Iwould buy they brand new at least they will be perfect. shop around there would be heaps of places in townsville were you can buy new mags. at least there is a wider range you can choose from.

Keith,
Start asking around in Volvo circles too. Volvo 145/165 244/245/265 etc wheels have the same stud pattern.

In NSW you can argue that the U series of Toranas actually came standard with 14 inch wheels. The problem lies in arguing that an LH is really a UA and an LX is really a UB. All said, a UC is basically an LX with different panels and tail-lights, just lik |
