rims

[pr0n]

hi all, i saw this great offer on bob jane t marts website, they have some sweet rims 4 sale for cheap and i was thinking of getting 4 of them this week and then saving up for the rubber over the next 2-3 weeks.



if i get 18's or 17's will i need an adjustable pan hard rod.? i bought shortened Monroe shocks for the back today and ordered 4 king spring super lows. i want to put the rims and lowered suspension over a weekend. will i have any issues, also if i get 17's or 18's what sort of tyres will i need? 205/65/18R? i have no clue about tyres and stuff so if someone could explain for me.

For 17's you'll want 235/45R17 tyres, 18's 235/40R18's. The lowered springs combined with the wider tyres may mean you'll get a bit of rubbing on one side unlesss you install an adjustable panhard rod. Only one way to find out though.

They offer 12 months intrest free if you like. If not save for the tyres first and buy as a whole package, they always do a better price on the lot.
You should be fine without an adjustable pan hand bar, I have ultralows with 19's and dont have one.
Tyres:
17's you would be looking at around a 225/45/17 or 235/45/17 depending on the rim width.
18's would be a 235/40/18.

I got my 17s from bob jane 12 month interest free. Got the wheel and tire package for $1100.

Like Airstrike said, you may not need it. You'll have to fit em up to find out for sure though.

My right wheel scraped a little when i had people in the back. But just rolled the guards a little and now its all good.

^^^did you roll the guards urself? did you put any dints in the outside of the panel?

had 18's on the Calais, & we found that lowered with 15's & 3 people, was making it scrape, so when it came to getting the 18's we rolled the guards & panhard rod, no troubles.....

VK is totally different to a VN tho. My VN is ultra;s 19's with 235's and rolled gaurds. I could get away without the rolled gaurds 90% of the time tho.

sorry should have clarified.... VN CALAIS. Im well aware that the VK's & VN's are different.

My old man did it. His a spray painter/panel beater so he has done 100s of them so he did a good job. Only took about 10mins and you cant even notice its done
