My new wheels

[shaggerz]

Hey guys,

Got some new wheels after hitting a traffic island and bending two of the standard 17s. Posted a pic a while ago in the 'pics of your VY' thread but didnt really get any feedback. Thx to my bro Stressball for the mad good photo too.

What do you think?

Woulda look better on a calais ben hahahahah, nah they alrite silver outta woulda looked better i think

[shaggerz]

[MYDZYR]

i think they suit, but 1 size bigger in 19s would look better imo nice pick up

[vy_03]

Awesome!! Where'd you get them from?

[shaggerz]

got them from Bob Jane at Blacktown... cannot recommend them enough! best customer service ever, and they even sprayed my discs and calipers black to match

EDIT: by "discs" I mean the hubs of them, not the braking surface some overspray, but 2 seconds of braking and it was gone.

These are 18 inch Equus Kalibur as depicted here

I do suffer from a small amount of shame with these being manufactured by a Chinese company called "Lucky Wheel and Tyre" but when I drive past someone on the street, I doubt their first thought would be "pffftt... cheap chinese wheels"

may i ask a price, tyres included etc.?

$1800 for the four with Maxxis MAV-1 235/40R18

Would have gotten better tyres, but I also had $1400 worth of suspension damage from the impact, so the tyres had to be cheapies.

EDIT: I don't remember the EXACT price, but the "non package" price for the rims only was about $260 each, give or take.

you could have done a lot worse than the Maxxis.... they are actually a decent tyre. Not a premium tyre but quite decent.
