Default Monte or OZ alloys pics on a 3 door.

Just bought a set of these;



For fitment on a white 3 door but the only pic I have of similar.



Does anyone have any pics of them on a 3 door?

I am thinking charcoal like my BBS (see below), white or gold? But need to get graphics sorted and colour is dependant.


Thanks for any help.

They are made for a M72 centrelock so clearance is about 76mm - they are the same fitment as my BBS and will be machined by me for the same offset.

They are 18" x 8 - I paid $1200 Aus incl. delivery. They are magnesium (weigh 8kg each) with an offset of +50 - I am machining some adaptors to make them about +35 or so to fit the three door.

Gonna have them gold.

Gday Tony.

Yes from Trade Me. $1200 Aus incl delivery.

You will need to make some centrelock adaptors for your escos – I could do a set $1800 (four adaptors, six nuts) – I have drawings so you are welcome to them (I could change the drawing to suit +15 offset for your escos) - If you know anyone with a CNC lathe (or a VERY good manual operator) it is about $500 worth of material.

Get together with Tony then - 8 wheels will be cheaper from NZ - I am sure that you could get 8 bought from him and landed in Aus (melb) for about $2000.

PM me if you want his email - but you need to sort centrelock adaptor first.

Else there is no point - do you know any machinists? Can supply drawings.

When did you get an escos?

Yes - but you do not have to knock out your studs - long nuts thread over the complete stud and are tapered to mate in the adaptor to centralise it. Also, not as thick as those are alloy - mine 4140 with alloy nuts - I think this is better as some similar materials can tend to bind. They nuts are also hard anodised so do not look as as polised as those.
