Hey cool thanx 4 all the replies!

Yep un4tunatly an na! where bouts is Mr Mag, Platinum and Wheel World?

I have a budget of about $2000 maybe a bit more

Hey PVA how much? I probably would not get them though coz i have a couple a friends with the same ones but they r damn nice i like the ROH adrenalins as well but again i would like 2 c wat else i can find preferably somethin not as common but if i cant find anythin beta then i would get ROHs 4 sure!

thanx again!:D

dont go to bob jane, or big places like that, the people that will do the best deal are your local small tyre shops, they are run by 1 guy, and they will knock off a lot to get the sale, I paid $1700 for my rims and tyres, and bob jane quoted $2400 for the same set.

When i checked around, most small shops were around the same price, they may not have the big display, but have access to the suppliers, so go in to a big shop, pick the wheels, and buy them from a small shop.

easy, and $2000 will get you a good set, with good tyres.

Hey Pva where bouts did you look and wat places did u find best 4 4studs?

Should i try second hand places?

bought off 2nd hand... I didnt look many places...

looking for 2nd hand does not give good choice of selections.

cheers

how about ROTA? im picking up a set of 4 18's for 990 soon from Vision R :)

gotta source tyres seperately though but if u put say federal 595 SS on you'll be able to get it all done for less than 2000

    • 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.
