Gday gents

just looking around for some wheels for the wifes AU ghia(wanted azzuros but cant find any),but have seen quite a few wheel adds suggesting nissan,hilux and supra wheels will suit fords au-bf,thats ok for the stud pattern but the offset is what concerns me,Does anyone know of the top what other make/car manufacture wheels go on AUs with out looking silly and the wrong offset.

Late model Magnas and camrys have the same PCD and offset as AU/BA. The azzurros were made by ROH - have you checked their site?

I got a set in 17s a few years ago now (from ROH), and they were around $1060 for rims only. I already had 17s so it was simply a rim swap for me, using existing tyres.
