If you consider road noise when choosing tyres you either:

- have a shit flowing exhaust

- need to grow some balls

- enjoy masses of penis

Says the guy who sold his 33 for a "family friendly" car.

So how much would I be looking at for a locallly bought set of NT05's in 265/35/18 or 255/40?35?/18

I've just chucked my 17's on the back, I don't really want to be rolling for too long with mismatched wheels :P Was hoping to drop off the rims this week somewhere, then pick up later in this week,,,

Don't really want to go anywhere over $275 / tyre... So "AD08 territory tyres" are out, no good for a daily anywhere with their wear rating...

Look @ eBay.

Yah its saying $550 + $45 shipping from Syd + like $30 to strip and fit them both at a tyre shop if you byo tyres, so would work out to be like $312/tyre in the end :( vs $260 fitted for the RSRs :/

sort of know that feel now, living by myself at home ATM while parents are travelling I like it

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
