been following that senators build, its looking really good with the 19x9s
yeah im going for that look, still undecided on 18s or 19s, going to the tyre shop this friday to have a look at both wheels, im thinking 19x9.5 front and rear or 18x9 front and rear, the 8.5 fronts dont have enough dish

It will look good stanced but you'll be a target for the new Victorian Police blitz they just announced.

Yeah I know, I live in a hot spot full of police as it is, I don't think I'll last more than a couple weeks before getting defected, all they can get me for is to low and stretched tyres anyway

If you take up the weight of the rim, You know once it cambers in it won't sit out like that right?

P.s- Remove the fake BBS centrecaps. You're not fooling anyone.

Lol
For starters they're a lower offset wheel on the back just to see if I liked the design, I don't want them to sick out that's why I picked the offset I wanted, just like every other commodore I've had owned once you lower the rear to ssl the rear naturally cambers in, I'm going to pump the rears to make sure they tuck, secondly they were the ones they had in store the ones I bought/ordered aren't coming with the bbs stickers if you really wanted to know

And sandman I always use jack stands when I work on my car and other peoples cars, I do guard rolling on the weekends and I can assure you I use jack stands lol the tyre shop I bought these from decided not to use jack stands and I was to busy deciding on what size wheels I wanted to realise

Thanks for the criticism it's like you guys are constantly looking out for something to sook about lol

Finally found time to lower the calais, SSL front and back and monroe shortened shocks in the rear
Next up will be rolling my guards and fitting my wheels and steering wheel, hard to find time to work on it as I've got exams the next 2 weeks
