BADXR8

The place where I bought my 19s has his work ute(BA) fitted out with 20s. Maximum width at front is 225s. PM if interested.

Try 350ks out of 60 litres. Mind you that is all city/suburban drivng with a slightly heavier right foot than left.

Hey Falchoon, How do you find the Nankangs ?

My BA is lowered and has 265s at the rear. It had the slightest of rubbing, which a little guard rolling fixed.

No such problems with the Speedy rims. It pays to shop at reputable locations.

If you're Sydney, try Dents R Us.

Hi Guys, I just bought these rims in 19x8.5 & 19x9.5 with 235/45 & 265/30 Nankangs for $2800. Only difference is my rims are from Speedy and are called HP Racing. Pretty good value I thought. If you want to know where from, let me know.

Sorry Turbodewd, can't provide a dyno result as I don't have one. It's never seen a dyno

Yeah mate. Been to Thomson Ford only for warranty work. Wouldn't want them to touch anything else. I go to my local mechanic at Bridgestone Smithfield. Lots cheaper, and reliable.

Ford = only warranty work. Bridgestone Tyre Centre at Smithfield for all other mechanical, great lot of blokes with a real passion for anything performance.

As has been mentioned. It ultimately comes down to what you will be happy with. I chose to go the XR8 route and I'm extremely happy with it, and it's only getting better. 11000 k's and starting to really fry the tyres !!! By the way, as I've noticed on this forum, there are way more problems to be reported with the 6T then the 8. Herrods exhaust will get it bellowing Good luck, either way you can't go too wrong, beats GMH hands down.

I'm still waiting for a diff replacement (3 months and counting). The reason for the change is a leak !!!! Go figure. Although it does also clunk.

The guys at Bridgestone Tyre Centre in Smithfield Sydney have usually got 18" ROH rims and Hankook or Kumho tyres to suit Falcon/Late model camira for approx. $1900 - $2000.
