Love em stink, I have not long put a set on my wagon aquired off ED on the forum.
The rims were a little how ya goin but some new rims came with them so I got the centres fitted in, Pricey little exercise
Youve probably already sussed out how the centres fit up ,I know theres a few styles but mine have a metal tab thats cast into the alloy which needed to be carefully trimmed out of the old rims and welded into the new, Also I heard the rims are imperial sizing and impossible to get now ,I hope thats only a rumour ,can anyone shed some light on it

,Cheers

The bloke at the engineering co I dropped the wheels off at didn't mention any potential problems. He knew what the Tasmans were and how to re-rim them.
I'll let you know what the outcome is.
