I have just put on a set of LENSO MUSE 19" :D

Rubber F:245/35/19 & R:275/30/19 :)

Price $3600 inc. wheels, tyres, locknuts, nuts, balanced & fitted

Picture does the rims no justice, as they look white they they are actually that light grey colour. Other finishes also avaliable for this rim.

The rims only sometimes rub the plastic mud gaurd, in the front wheel, arches when i turn the wheel. And when i sometimes get the car airborne over a bump on Melbournes 5h1tty roads.

Stiff Tein adjustable suspension play a major roll in not rubbing. As you could see in the pic, the car is not dumped on it's nuts, as if it was lower i would possible have to flare the gaurds. Also this keeps the cops off my back as a coke can can fit around all sides with at least 1/2" to spare.

does the low profile rubber u need to run with 19inches make it a preety rough ride around mel's shit roads?

When i got the car, the stock rims had/have a hard compound yocohama tyres (205/55/16).

The ride quality feels almost the same with the 19's (Hankook silica). I was pleasantly surprised.

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
