I know they have a f*cked up bolt pattern (that's why i can't find 'em.)
Do thay have an address anywhere near Calgary???
I would really like to get a set!!

check out the diamond site. i know they have a bolt pattern for an -se, and i think i heard they had a bolt pattern for other first gens too, you'd have to look on the site. mine (those in the autox pics) are from diamond they are called "mini stock" i think, size 13x8 and they were $61 a peice. they ship out of milwaukee, WI.

Damn! I would rather drive to Milwaukee and pick them up, then wait for them to be shipped up here. No matter what you order, or where you order it from in the U.S. , it takes about 6-8 weeks to get it here now. Plus the shipping charges would be rediculus. Oh well, i'll just have to find em somewhere in Canada.

I might be able to find 'em in Vancouver.

Thanks anyway for your help Adsoccer!

Have a good one!!

Vince
