Ended up going with:

Tire size - 245x35 (F) 275x30 (R) (Toyo T1-R's)

Interestingly the dish on the 9.5's are identical to the 8.5 (to the naked eye anyway) but I can live with it :) cant wait to see the 275's fitted :lol:

btw...what sort of tire pressure do you run ddubb? anything special for this size?

congrats! looks good man. running around 35-40 psi will be fine. not too high but not too low.

Hi guys,

It has been three weeks but finally I managed to get all the pieces together and got the wheels fitted yesterday :cool:

For those interested I went with the EBC red stuff pads...so far I am very impressed!! I also raised the height a 1/2 inch all around but I think it drives a lot better now...it is definitely more forgiving on our Sydney roads :fingersx: in regards to the drive now with the staggered setup to be honest I quite like it...but I'll will give it a few weeks to make my final decision.

Anyway hope you like the pics...it was getting dark so I did what I could...I will definitely have the camera out in the coming weeks so look out! ;)

Thanks again for all your help! I am real happy with the buy!

Cheers,

Maz

do you mind me asking how much were the rims? thanks!

RNE515 03-10-2007 06:01 AM

Easy answer would be too much ;) but no...

I ended up getting a pretty good deal from an importer here in Oz but got quoted between 3600-4k (AUD) mark from a few places when I was looking...

Once you get the rims of course there is the small matter of tyres which do not come cheap either :(

Volks FTW! :rock:

the only problem for me w/ my volks is that i will never be able to buy a different type of rim again unless its a volk wheel.

once you go volk, you never go back..LOL
