If that's Austrailian Ebay then the $919 is probably in their currency so you need to do the conversion to USD. Then expect about $400-$500 of shipping on top of that.

Everyone, im sorry i forgot to mention this. I've already converted the currency. The $919 is in american dollars. The listing was originally $1,300+ australian!
And the shipping doesnt matter either way becuase if you were to buy authentic HSV wheels, you would add the same shipping, only difference is it would be on top of $4,000+ instead of $919. So you would spend $1300 on these, or $4400 on the authentic ones. Either way no matter what shipping costs, you save over $3,000!!!!

It says GTS "style" wheels , i doubt that they are authentic. I dont mean to be a hater but it just seems too good to be true. I want to say that the gts wheels only came in 20", but I could be wrong. I guess if they are good quality wheels who cares about who made them. good way to save some money for other mods.

I was told by an HSV parts supplier that anytime anyone says "style" when posting on aus.ebay you should read "piece of heavy junk". The HSV rims are $3500 for a reason. Just my $.02

I have the actual HSV GTS rims on my car. They are expensive but very high quality. I actually just sold two spares back to a guy in Australia too.

The genuine HSV VE GTS rims are 20x8" front and 20x9.5" rear.
They have the HSV logo and info cast into the rear faces of each web.

You'll find most of the HSV "style" rims on Aussie fleabay are either 4of 19x8" or 4of 20x8".
You often get what you pay for when buying cheap ripoffs:
