Can't put rims on a crewman?

I'm not sure how it works with another persons insurance, but if your using your own insurance, they will of course try and find anything to get them out of paying!

Too low and too loud would not be covered on the policy, so therefore you've breeched your contract (have to maintian a roadworthy car)

This was done using my own insurance company. Insurance bloke drove the car, looked it over, said it looked like a nice car and ok'd the repairs.

Well, assessors are people too. Most of the time, their job is to find out ways to get out of paying a claim!

The laws have changed in QLD on wheels and a few other things ... when i get the email forwarded to me i'll see if i can put it up but you can have rims on the car as long as they are rated at 1.5 times the factory fitted rims load rating. There was also somin else about tyres ... mental blank. But yea I'm not gonna go back to that tyre shop.

My previous cars that I had accidents in had a few minor things that made them un-road worthy at the time of the crash and the car was fixed or paid out on with no issues from the insurer. The faults were not the driect cause of the accidents though. if they were I would have been up poo creek.

From my research into Crewy rims and tyres I have found. (NSW)

Crewy's came out with rim sizes 15 to 18 inches.

The compliance sticker on your door states what rims and tyres you have.

Tyre dealers will only go of this sticker as it is the law.

Holden are bastards for not putting on a sticker that covers all sizes for the Crewy.

Makes it very hard to get mags and tyers for it.

I bought my wheels for my one tonner off bridgestone. They would only sell them to me if they didnt put them on the car, cause they arent legal load rating. I need a 104 (i think) rating amd theyre only 100. . .

No it isn't. Their job is to assess the damage for repairs.

Might want to do some more research, 'cause that isn't entirely true...

soooo why cant you speak to the tire place, talk a deal, for examply, you buy the rims and tires off them. put them in the back of your crewman, put them on at home, drive back to the store, and then they can balance them and align them?

I guess buying wheels off eBay should be banned....... Sadly there are too many laws ......... but these laws are usually bought about by accidents ..... and how to prevent reoccurrence ....... except the speed rule ..... that just generates too much cash ....... Might have to put my wheel back on eBay .... once the rubber is worn out
