Not wheels but have used their workshop for a turbo install and they were very cheap

Something like $400 including some stud extraction from the stud doc

Transaction errors perhaps but I've found contractual calculations are usually accurate to the decimal point as they had to go thru approvals/legal/payroll etc

Yah for big companies

Small companies HR is just a middle aged lady with minimal qualifications with no seperate legal or payroll department.

Got two mates looking for 18 inch rpf1's. 1 in about 18x9 + 22 and the other set whatever sits flush on a 08 wrx

mostly trawling yahoo and jap stores. the rest i know through people.

hmmm RPF1's arent that expensive new. that would be my suggestion, as I have seen what happens to them with regular track use. and rather than getting bad gutter rash, they tend to 'snap'. someone recently go these repaired:

first ones i don't mind, but from the pics pretty much won't fit over the brakes.

I just tried on some of these at otr with the 9.5s on the front +30 clears brakes by a bees dick, only problem is cant get silver they can only get flat black. Still looks good though just need to decide if I want to go black again

i saw a pic of the concave's on a falcon and wasnt really sold on the look. and they dont look like the most friendly wheel in the world for brake clearance. anyway, 

work wheels. T7R 19x9.5 +25. $2,020 plus postage http://www.jdmconcept.com.au/part/work/emotion-t7r-set

not sure what that price compares to the concaves.

http://www.jdmconcept.com.au/part/work/mco-racing-type-cs-set - 18x9.5 +22 for 1900. you can then run my 275 18's for cheap ;)

problem is, a lot of the falcons with rims don't get the right sizes so looses it's potential most BBS LM style look aids on them but mine pulled it off i think

Concaves are $1800 for comparison and OTR said they'd swap my tyres over for free for me from my BBS's.. not really sold on the work T7R would rather concaves over them I think.

18s look too small on falcons, look at those 19s ^ just about right. 

Need to paint the D1Rs black so no one can see them properly.
Theres that falcon on bags that was wrapped like an aqua green colour... White D1Rs spoiled it.
I also thought 18's were too small for gloria, but reducing tyre width made heaps of difference. Also good luck try to sell wheels without tyres. People too tight assed about it. Its like rego and selling cars.

Which is ridiculous because most tyres that come with rims are dodgy shit or worn out anyway lol

People never seem to like putting in effort for the unseen hero components of a car

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.  
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
