My Ute sits the same as yours when you had SL i thought SSl would have made it dropped more than that.Maybe needs a bit weight in the back to get it to settle?. Yeah i knew it would rub I'm running 255's and it rubs everywhere im rolling them hopefully tomorrow.I must admit those yellow walls look good.

Technically not yellow walled thats the silver strip around the outside of the rim in yellow, which I think looks not too bad. Would be more permanent than walls too.

#### 255s haha thatd be rubbing like crazy. does it look like youve been doing AWD burnouts? xD mine did hahah get em rolled man if your from SE suburbs in Vic i know a bloke 30 a corner. does a great job. very careful with the paint ect. if you want ill give you his number. and yea might chuck some bags of sand in the back for a while cause there is #### all weight in it.

anyone know if i can level out the lowness cause my fuel tanks on drivers side it sits mint but the passenger side is higher. anyone know any tricks to get it even? or anything to change to get it even?


Thanks Sandman

No probs mate, for that look I showed getting that face wrapped would probably be the go, shouldn't be too hard for someone who knows their way around vinyl too. Otherwise you could go the yellow walls, just that you would also have the silver circle on the rim and the wall close together so take that into consideration.

A few sand bags in the tray for a couple of weeks should help the springs settle.

Nah just the rears the fronts have been rolled but its eaten a bit of the rear tyres outer edge.All good bro i am on the Gold Coast and i'l be doing a D.I.Y job have a guard roller/heatgun and a hammer if it all goes wrong lol.

As Sandman said i'd get them done with vinyl maybe even give it a go yourself. If it goes wrong or you get sick of it just rip them off. I have seen a few commodores around here with sort of similar wheels but with a red lip i think they come out that way thou.

Either that or Plasti-Dip, would only need 1 can for those little strips.

Yeah they do. You would be wasting a lot of vinyl otherwise.
