haha.. ok James..

yeh Ben. I'm gunna call up some places on monday...

rubber is most important atm.

eug: don't have rpoper pix.. i'll take em tomorrow.

basically just multispoke thingos.. with the "S" in the centrecaps.. they are only 15". Like i said they'd only be really for drifting, burnouts or the drags, they're not really a "look at me" rim to drive around with if that is what u wanted. I was asking $250 .. but i'd take $150 for the them.

lookin at about 1.5-2k on the wheels

[BelGarion]

wet weather a539s are great, so are my fm901s but dunlop decided to superceed them with something else

um, my experience with bob jane is the toombal one is good, but the one on the coast that i was using is ****ed

Eugene, best to do some research, alot of people have good things to say about Bridgestone Potenza (SO2, SO3), Michelin Precendas, Toyo Trampios(?). All depend what you expect from them and how deep your wallet is. I love the Yoko ES100s on the GTR but they are starting to get a little $$$ and I fear the mileage won't be that great, but the grip is fantastic.

Tyres shouldn't really be an issue unless you've got absoultely no tread and it's raining. My tyres suck and I still come out.

[BelGarion]

im doubting my cars readyness for the rocky run

[predator]

all have ups and downs..

everybody wants a perfect long last tyre that is cheap, good in the wet, good on the track, grips well on the road, and under every condition -- not going to happen.

check the "tyre and suspension" area and old threads in there, there is alot of useful stuff i learned in there.

[Charly]

lookin at about 1.5-2k on the wheels

wheels and tyres? or just wheels?

[Eug]

ohh 15s ...

I was lookin for 5 spoke 17". nvm abt pics then Gordo.. srry.

not too concerned with dragging, burnouts and drifting... just

something that will keep me on the roads, and take the corners.

[BelGarion]

i just wish dunlop still made 901s cause they are great, id have put 4 on my car but they stopped making them, so now i got 2 great tyres on the front

and 2 of the dodgyest tyres on the back

they make nangkangs look like pirellis

[Eug]

James, u've seen what my tyres do.. they are shyt. and last night they were shyt too

As to the money i have atm, not very much after buying the car.. only abt 1.5k atm..

maybe shud save up a lil more.

b...b....berocca holly crap that stuff is potent

[Eug]

Erin for mum?? Who's erin.

[predator]

yer.. thats what i thought - these are just for ****ing around with, not looking good. thats what i got em for.

well as a *rough* guide, i picked up my set of 2nd hand set of 17x8 chrome rims for $1000. Then about $800 for tyres (got cheap us $200 Falken ZE326 which i would NOT recommenD). So around $1800 all up.

check board.performanceforums.com (when its back up!) they have a really good wheel forum with some good deals on there. That is where i got mine acutally i think way back when

[jlnewton]

I better go do something, see ya guys.

[Eug]

2 red bulls and a pack of 12s is potent
