Yeah gonz, the only FG they have done with the xyz's. I know that you have them now, how you finding them? When they were first installed, they were a little soft and weren't dialed in correctly. Both Pete and I knew this but had to let the springs and shocks settle before we fixed it. 2 weeks later took it in and re dialed in the suspension. Thing handled like a go cart, I thought it was magic, however Pete still wasn't happy. So xyz sent over new rears. Put them in and F**k. That good. Like honestly speechless. It did take about 6 weeks for it to happen, however end result was magic. They look after you $$ wise too :D WA suspensions is def a quality place not only with customer service but with knowledge and advice. I got me sway bars to come but no $$ atm is killing me haha How are you finding them gonz?

I was looking at 20x9 front 20x10 rear lol That's why they were so expensive. However, they are THE nicest wheel ive seen I just can't justify spending 1800 a rim lol Figures why I'm getting these.
-
Yeah but let's be honest here... Advan and avs are ridiculously expensive... Plus $1200 a wheel. And who really wants to spend 5k on just rims. That my friends is HEAVY haha btw I'm placing the order for these on Wednesday.
-
gonz- mate I have a fg xr6t running XYZ's.... and they are the f**king bomb!!! like I honestly dont know how to explain it... the only thing I can suggest is I take you for a spin. who are you speaking to at wa suspensions?
-
what did you end up going for mate? did you get some mean offset???
-
finally someone else who has XYZ coilovers haha what do you think of them? I rate mine HIGHLY!!
-
looking around the 3k+ mark for genuine Volk TE37's.... can pick these up delivered to my door in perth for $1500. im chasing a mean, phat low stance and I think I can achieve that with these. as I said im looking into a xr8 bonnet and also have a bobtail on its way, to be painted the same color as rims. another thought is painting the bottom lip on the front bar... looks the goods on those that have done it so far.
-
so im looking at getting these wheels... just want to know what you guys think... along with thtese wheels im looking at a xr8 bonnet and a bobtail spoiler (spoiler in the same matte color as rims) the wheels are 19x8.5 +32/ 19x9.5 +22 and are made by Varrstoen. They are a copy of Volk TE37's.
-
mate, any chance you can throw up an actual picture of the rims... the link you put up wont work for some reason :S
-
Have a fg xr6 turbo... I've had a quick look, however can't see anything. Do they have T5 globes in the footwells like ba/bf xr's?
-
Sorry should have read previous comments. Winston answered my question.
-
If I'm running a 275 on a 19x9.5 rim... Do I need a 30 or 35 profile to keep the travel of the rear wheel same as stock?
-
eBay has them at like $600 for 2. Brand new plus freight.
-
Just curious... I'm looking at getting a set if enkei RPF1's in a staggered fitment. 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rear. The front running like a +23 offset I think it is, maybe 22 but it's like low 20's. And a +34 on the rear. To your knoledge, do you know why no one will sell me these lol I've tried a few places and they have said only 8.5 will fit in the rear. Any idea? Because by my calculations should fit :S because others have them fitted...
-
Dre..... Hahahaha quality.
-
$760 a corner :o that's ridiculous
-
So when are you gonna drop a turbo six in this taxi? Hahaha you know by paying a little more... The quality of tyre you get is heaps better. Dunlop sports... Or bridgstone patanzers... They perform a sh*t load better. And there still rather cheap considering. Your life isn't worth a few dollars.
-
Colin... Mate car is more of a beast then I thought. Me like hahaha who did your work for you? I mean like tune etc? Looks like your pretty hand y on the tools mate.
-
Tyres for 20" rims are getting better and better. And if you have a good suspension set up the performance is pretty good. Well a bit better then just pretty good.
-
colin... mate she looks beautiful :D sits real nice... yeah I would have liked to get tiens, but with a tight student budget all the savings went on buying the car :( what width are your rims mate? are they staggered?
-
XYZ coilovers
-
black ftw. finding a staggered black rim is hard.. because styles are very limited :( you can get the rim widened, however it depends on the off set. comes in a staggered fitment and also in 20... but lets be honest... who is gonna pay 2k per rim.
-
My bad.... Haha thanks for clearing that up tocchi :S well I know that 20x9.5 running 275 fit in the rear. Had some fitted, but didn't like the look once they were fitted. So still running my phoon rims. This rim deciding business is heavy haha
-
I know of a bloke running 20x10 front and 20x10 rear, using tien coilovers and runs track and drift events. The thing sits like a dream, and he doesn't have an issue at all. the tires are rather stretch compaired to what I would run. Never the less it's been done.
-
ill be sure to get some better picture bud. I just havent had the time with work being busy. I think it has real stance. it looks tough, its not dumped so it doesnt look try hard, but its not a 4wd either. im interested to see what it will look like with 20's on it. with an aggressive offset and staggered fitment. I think I could have found a winner with that combo. I havent seen any FG's with staggered 20's.
