Love those rims Scotty. Are they the HSV Maloo R8 ones? Look excellent for the circuit... plenty airflow for your CSC's :D .

They are VZ Clubsport R8... though I think they were also on the GTO and maybe maloo.

They are 19*8 with Kuhmo EXSTA MX KU15 245/35/19s

Currently these rims are for street only..... I have the VYSS 18s for the track... yet to choose rubber for them, but have to wear out the current rubber first.

PS brakes are CSC 355 front and 343 rears

The "Commaro" is looking good Scotty. Those rims really suit your ride.

They are awesome rims. I have grown to dislike my CV8-R polished rims and have looked at stacks of rims to replace them but havent been able to find the right ones. I put a post up on the other forum looking for pics of Series I-III Monaros with these on them but had no replies. I think they might be the way to go. Your brakes look fantastic behind these rims to. I think you need decent brakes with these rims. In summary your car looks hawt dogg! :bow:

I agree, awesome looking wheels, would love a set for mine. I think NVU has a pic of a Silver Monaro with the Black OZ wheels on their website, looks hot

Nice wheels mate. I reckon they are the nicest rims Holden/HSV have ever made. Had I kept my Z series Clubby, I would have bought a set for it!

If anyone is in the market there are some decent prices available at the moment for these rims. Some of the sponsors on ls1.com.au have some good deals. This mod will have to wait for me as the brakes and engine mods must come first! :)
