Thanks mate , they really do look better in person from my opinion. What were you driving mate ? We need to go for a drive sometime soon ......

Keen to hear ideas and thoughts on this as I'll hopefully be doing the same thing in the near future. What's your supporting mods and what power are you hoping to achieve HSV ETR?

If I wasnt working I'd come for sure.

Ok so I presume nobody is interested in a meet at ringwood , drive to mt. dandy then to the yarra valley and back ??

Yup, just waited 2 and a half years just to make my move........ Hah. Hopefully we can get 10 - 15 cars to come to this so please post interest.

Hahah, you referring to me stainless ?

Hey guys, I was thinking about organing a cruise on a saturday morning or evening at some stage, or evening a friday night depending on peoples feedback. I'll be happy to figure out times, Places to meet and the route if ppl let me know if they'd prefer a sat morning (having lunch somewhere), or friday night (dinner somewhere and drinks). I live in whoop whoop so most likely windy roads are gonna be in the mixture and I'll prob let the boys in blue know whats happening so we dont get pin pointed in one of their nights out but plz let me know so I can organise a decent cruise soon . Cheers (most likely consist of 2 - 4 hours driving + a feed for lunch / dinner somewhere).

For the road I would definately be going the Toyo R888s. MT's are great for the drag strip but wouldn't offer much on the road. I've just put on 275 NT05's on the rear and now get full traction in 2nd after they're warmed up a little with a bit more than your power.

Congratulations mate, unbelievable what a bit of that magic fuel does. Notice a big difference between this and the 98 tune ??

Hey yeh, was thinking about getting the lip polished as well Worm, can always do that in the fututre anyway, but they certainly don't look like 17's. I had 18's in black too and these look bigger so I'm not overly concerned. And in pics the black lip mixes in with the tyre, In person there is a fair bit of difference tbh. I will contact them tomorrow and ask him to blank that out. Cheers for letting me know. The brakes will also be going on this week to so will post pics once they're sitting behind.

Here's my new wheels fitted. They're Koya Inox SV23 S Spec 19", 8.5 F & 9.5 R. Can't keep those bloody tyres clean living on a dirt road :(. Wheels are wrapped in Nitto NT05's. Havn't really given them a decent crack yet but they look like they'll stick pretty well. Will be fitting brembos shortly so they should show the calipers off nicely. I think they look better in real life compared to photos as you can't see all the wheel details or quality in the photos .......... but I may be bias. Also may consider painting them another color in the future but certainly no time soon. It's a nice change from black wheels.

Just taken some photos but will put it in a new thread for viewing.

Ok new rims are on !!! Havn't got any pics atm but I love the look of them. Aggressive fitment but no poke which is just how I wanted them. And the staggered fitment also. Now just waiting for the brembo 6 pots to go on and can't decide whether I want to leave the brembos red or whether I sand them back and paint them yellow ??

^^ Me too . Haha. Just hoping they look the goods on.

that's very interesting. Yeh it seems there was definately something a bit different going on there. Either way, I wanted to go new ones which are now all ready to pick up and looking good. So looking forward to putting those on .
