But yeah, as has been said... Enkei's aren't available in the correct PCD in 19"... Advan's are good albeit exxy as, but I've gotta say I prefer the Connoisseur's over the Kreuzer's!

I'm sure there are a few other options worth considering... especially if the $$s aren't too much of an issue! Check out the wheels thread --> viewtopic.php?f=19&t=5633&start=0

Personally I'd give my left nut for a set of either of these as well as either of the Advan's: :wink:

Jimmy the Rays GT30 are sexy though.

The price would be nice as well. :shock:

Don't you Jimbo? :D

Hush! Quiet you! We don't need yet another set in Australia diluting the exclusivity. :P


Jimbo and Clarence who knows you guys might help me purchase a set of the 151C including PHAT of course.

Would you guys honestly HELP me ????? :lol:

I know my direction now I have made contact with PHAT and I am trying to sort a few things out before I speak to PHAT about my order.
I am still trying to decide in a few sets that I am intrested in.

I am organising suspension and gold nuggets. Any suggestions on suspension ? Tein springs or Tein coilovers ?

hi dude,

If you are in Melbourne you should try OTR motorsport in springvale 03 9547 8100. Got a set of tyres from him and brake pads and he has heaps of jdm rims.
Tell him Ken with the liberty gt referred to him and he will look after you. I believe his prices are very good has he works for himself with less overheads.

cheers Ken

Hey guys just an update on how I am progressing.

I am proud to say that I am the owner of Rays GT30 wheels.

First of all let me just take some time to thank the people who help me find the right path, and to PHAT thx man for reaching out even further.

Now I have purchase these wheels from a Melbournian and beleive me it was an offer that I couldn't refuse. I have taken days to find out the best price from multiple people and suppliers and this guy killed them all.

The size is 19x8 with a +49 offset. They look like this and I can't wait for there arrival.
