i think the rostyle clubby rims are 10x4.5??? if so then there are heaps around.....otherwise the only other 10x4.5 steelies are cooper S rims i think??? you could always get some smallers steelies widened....probably cheaper anyway

is widening safe?

it's strange, i've seen most of the rims that you can get and i'm not entirely impressed.. i think a set of white minilites would be interesting but when ever i see a pic of the rims, they never seem to inspire me.. :? may just have to steel it..

Mambas are pretty good, and you don't see too many about, though they are as cheap as chips in England. Nice and wide too - the 10 by 6 gives mucho grip

I think you'll find they are a little more expensive than $1,000.
