i wanna get some 235/40/r18s onto a 10inch wide rim. purely cos i have both lying around and dont wanna shell out for new tyres yet. can this be done, and pls reccomend some places that can do the fitting for me as i know most tyre shops dont like stretching stuff

yes it can. we use a bicycle tube to bridge the gap that a 225 gives on a 10" wheel, so 235 should be easier. any shop that builds drift cars should be able to do it, they'll have someone there who has the technique down pat.

otherwise if you have till saturday give me the wheels I'll take em up to Campbellfield and chuck em on for you on the machine.

i'll ring around then, but saturday sounds good. i'll come up wit you tho cos tyres need to be swapped from one pair of wheels to another, and the second pair needs their tyres swapped to another pair lol. might not fit 6 rims plus tyres in your ceffy

No it looks hardcore Charles. Even 225/235 on 9" looks good. Hardcore!

it is hardcore, because im hardcore. i will f**k your shit up mr dude with pecs bigger than my face

And give you no grip lol. Might as well run stockies :)

interesting thought you have there kis, because thats exactly what i currently run, and they are awe, wait for it......SOME

niroj give wheeltech a call. they are in dande. they will do it for ya. they have done 225 on a 9" and 225 on a 9.5" rim for me so 235 on 10" wont be a problem.

see its only the blek fellas in here that actually show me any love. bloody wasteland whores. plus, atm, my car is turning into a hard parker anyways. i'll worry bout a more practical fitment if i ever bother to get to a track

I daily a 225 on a 9.5"... don't seem to have any issues. although tyre brand and model has a lot to do with it. Something with a flimsy sidewall will be balls. Also depends on how the tyre seats in the rim, which somewhat depends on the design of the rim.

But....

plus if your car isnt really low its going to look ridiculous having mass stretch and fender gap

I agree. Ngaroj unless you slam the crap out of your 33, stretched tyres are just gonna look stupid. And by slam I mean like less than 1cm between fender and rim (not tyre).

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
