      The wheels will arrive in 2 months, due to stock availability. Would come just in time when the tyres arrive.

                Concave we will have...about dish. I did consider it, but the price for custom colour on TE37's put me off! TE37SL did also cross my mind, but I decided to go with something no one else has so far.

                Timmy_B, I thought about them too after looking at Matt's.

                I have not seen those wheels before, and I was definitely impressed in how they looked on the more high end cars. However they were not suited to my taste unfortunately.


                Having said all that, I will be ordering Toyo Proxes R1R 265/35/18 soon. The price of these tyres are very reasonable and I can't justify spending on AD08's as I will only be doing spirited driving and occasional tuning days, hence to be hit with an import tax and gst being over the $1k mark from www.tirerack.com.... I just couldn't do it.

                The Toyo Proxes R1R perform quite well according to online reviews and I definitely will be keen to test them out. They are Price: $220.00 (each) ordered from www.tirerack.com and the shipping to my door is $375.

                      Don't get Toyo.

                      RE11, AD08 or Star Spec Budget, get Hankook RS3.

                        Gram lights do look nice hehe. But unfortunately I didn't order those rims.

                        Eric, you know I dont print money :P. I'll see what I can do :P But keeping a realistic mind, spirited driving is probably the most i'll squeeze out of my car. Tyres such as AD08 would be wasted. But having said all that, I do have a tendency to surprise people.

                          I'm pretty sure all of them are around the same price Norm? probably 100-200 more or less between those 4 tyres.

                            Understand though, whilst importing them, the AD08 its surely over $1k. The GST and Import Tax on that will be $217. That is extra.

                              I couldn't help myself. Rob and Tom, I might need some help. A stage 4 glimpse.







                              Whats my goal? I want to get this car featured in a car enthusiast magazine.

                                Wow... you took the entire front end off... I didn't even remove the radiator!

                                Hope you are changing that intake manifold. Let me know when you need a hand and I'll run through a few things with you!
