where to get varrstoens.

Are "cartel-online" reliable?

100% and the cheapest. that's where billy an i got our from

Real TE37's can be bought from Import Monster / Tyrepower Hawthorn.

sure can, for 4 times the price

I'd get Varstoens over te's myself cos I don't care about the weight

damn straight... the weight difference is basically nothing anyway.

yes

LOL!

You gonna start drifting?

no. just i reckon i might have them mate with a curb, and i wouldnt want to do that to real TE's

all of the above. yeh done, ordered through John at Varrstoen Aus. Cartel gave me his number.

4x 9.5" +22

Look up un-sprung weight..

honestly... 300rwkw @ 1350kg > unsprung weight difference of a few grams. it's not like we are talking steel 4wd rims on a ksev ;)

varrstoen's aren't heavy knock off rims, they are actually quite light - havent put them on the scales but yeh...

it's 1kg

8.3kg vs 9.3kg in the size i have

from memory unsprung weight is multiplied by 4 for sprung...

so in realilty i'm adding 4kg to my car but it has the effect of 16kg.

quick maths shows that as approx 236rwkw/tonne vs 239rwkw tonne assuming 1350 with te37's and 1366 with varrstoen... and probably a bee's dick under brakes....

think i'll live somehow ;)

    • 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.
