Has anyone got a pair of 18 inch rims for a CV8, that they don't use / don't want any longer / or have replaced ?
Want a spare pair for track use, to put on the rear, so not too worried about condition or appearance, as long as they haven't been damaged.
Thanks for your interest.

I know a bloke with both a set of 04 and 05 wheels. Which do you need?

My CV8 is an 05 model but wasn't aware of any difference.
Presume they are the same fitment?

Fitment is the same. Difference is just in the wheel design. The big boot CV8s have flat thin spoke wheels, the small boot CV8s have a thicker spoke and are slightly concave in design (and look much better in my biased opinion).

Cheers for that.
So on basis fitment is the same, happy to consider a pair of 04 or 05 rims.

The 05 CV8 wheel is a good looking classic five spoke design, it suits the car well and is simple to keep clean.
I did look at different wheels for my car but....so many modern after market wheels are so bloody awful, and if fitted to a Monaro just look wrong.
