what have you got 245/30R20

[GAMBLR]

Yeah, got them now Chris. Did have 225's, might have to go back to them...

Cheers mate, didn't think about taking the screwdown in size.

[GAMBLR]

Where it's hitting. Already rubbed away part of the guard/bumper, and it wants to keep scrubbing out on it.

[ducker85]

whats your wheel's offset? they should be 45p's?

[GAMBLR]

I think for memory thats what they are man. I'd have to double check. You'd think Wheelworx would send the right offset for a VZ though, spesh when Kyron ordered them.

[ducker85]

everytime I've deal with wheelworx they have stuffed me around. If I deal with them again i'll tell them what I want and will double check the product and price too

[<RaBBiT>]

gayness with the rubbing dude

[GAMBLR]

Might pay a bit extra next time and get something from interstate. Same product, better service. They stuffed myself and my brother around, not to mention Kyron and a few others. Might just speak for them as a whole, don't seem to be able to get it right.

Yeah it is f***ing gay man, but thems the breaks. Welcome to the world of cars, now bend over. :P

Originally the rims sat on 225/35 tyres. Maybe I should have taken the hint that they were the wrong size because they are the only load rated tyres that fit properly on a VZ... got a set of near new 245/30ZR20 if anyone is interested? haha

[GAMBLR]

Went in for a check up yesterday because it's been dropping coolant. What I was expecting to be a $500+ radiator/water pump, turned out to be a damaged radiator cap losing pressure. Go figure. Now just need the oil pressure switch and LPG done.

Car is also EOI. Slip us a PM if you're interested.

Lion badge fell off the grille, LOL. Kinda looks good without it, what do people reckon about painting it black? Considering the rest of the chrome trim on it, dunno how it'll look.

Or put some chrome sticky stuff on the grill bars like the Chev ones?

New LED parkers from evilBay, have to be well over 50 SMD's, bright as f***!

Hopefully gets some loving this weekend, been busy recently.

Wish it actually was clean -.- haha thanks man, the sunroof and GPS are pretty awesome additions to have

[GAMBLR]

Quiet as usual on the Calais front. Funds for it are restricted. But I decided when the time comes to get it some presents. Keeping it small, stereo, lights, coilovers and few body kit pieces. Could do a lot more but I'm always considering something newer. No point blowing heaps on this to lose it and have to start again.

[Jecs]

fk yeeee. love the current rims on it. sorry to say but wasnt a fan of any of the previous wheels on her.

the ass end just needs a bob tail and it'd be finished off

[GAMBLR]

Neither was I, glad I got rid of em :P considering VZ Senny's but too fkn expensive... Keen for a bobtail, also wanna try a VY Calais HBD rear skirt. Might fit, might not, wont be hard to flog off anyway.

Cheers buddy. One day I'll keep a car long enough to do half the awesome work done to yours!
