Hi, I did this last night, and the picture hasn't changed. Have I logged the support ticket correctly or? Thanks in advance.

ok, my ad has gone in the classifieds now. Thanks. How do I edit it so the photo shown on the first ad isn't of a rear seat? Is it possible to edit my ad at all?

I paid for a "Cars For Sale" classified ad on 21 Sep 2013 20:15:35 AEST with PAYPAL (copy of payment below) and my ad hasn't gone on the site as yet. Please let me know what is going on with it please. thanks.

Rims are 18 x 8.5 +30 on front, 18 x 9.5 +35 on rear. Rear tyres are Continentals, compact sport 2's. Few more pics for those interested.

Well my Rota Grid R's arrived earlier this week from Vision R. I got tyres fitted to them yesterday and fitted them on my car. I got 245/40x18 on the front, and 285/35x18 on the rears. These fitted nicely,guards have been rolled. :good: Thanks to the guys at Taleb Tyres for all their help. Seems to grip a bit better than before...........sorta Took a quick pic, will take more later.

Rang up Visionr and talked to them regarding the fitment of the rims I said in previous post. Was told I may have to modify trailing arms on rear to give clearance. Has anyone had to do this? I think rad on post #51 has the set up I require?! Rad, did you have to modify your trailing arms at all? Rednose, what is the offset of your Rear rims? Thanks for any info.

They may grip better after a burnout, but its hard to do that at a set of lights on the street.

Timetaker thanks for your info .

Thanks for that insightful bit of wisdom re: hub dyno........I and everyone else on the forum probably didn't realise that! However, I didn't expect them to grip as bad as they do after some of the comments I have read about them. I expected them to grip a substantial amount better than the cheaper tyres I had on previously, which came on the rims when I bought them, however this wasn't the case. They did grip a bit better, but not as good as I expected. It is very difficult to accelerate with any degree of urgency with them at all. Pressure is at 30-32 psi, for daily driving. I don't need stock rubber on to be a laugh...........these are bad enough! After reading another thread, the Michelin Pilot Sports sound like they might be worth a try?

Was thinking of getting a set of these on my BF http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/150740519794?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 These with 275/35 x 18 Nitto Invos on the rear, and 245/35 x 18's on the front. From what I have read, these should fit o.k shouldn't they? Would I have to get the rear guards rolled? I currently have 245/35 x 19 Nitto NT05's on the rear and they are pretty cr@p in my opinion, I am hoping the wider invo's will be a LOT better! Thanks for any info.

I have 245/35 x 19 NT05's on the rear of my car and they are pretty cr@p. No where near what I expected. I am considering going to a different set of rims, and putting 275's invos on the rear..........hopefully they will grip better!?

Don't doubt your crotch rocket is quick, have you actually done a 9.95@148mph on it, or is that just manufacturers claim? Not only does it depend on how good a rider a person is, I believe it largely depends on the road as well. Without going into your previous posts for evidence, I'm assuming by your attitude you are an excellent rider? Have you actually been in a GTR R35? They really do handle and perform extremely well given their size. I've been the passenger in an R35 on a tight twisty bumpy tree lined mountain road, and I would love to see a bike try to go as quick......ah then again maybe not! The GTR has hugely more tyre on road contact and AWD for grip as well as big brakes. Not doubting that on the right type of road your suicide missile would show the R35 its "stock" tail pipes, but I think on the road I was taken on, you'd meet your match......or your maker!?

"Conditions being good" means that they have heat in them and the road surface is grippy, otherwise forget it. They aren't a real expensive tyre, so in the end, I suppose you get what you pay for.

I put a couple of Nitto NT05's on the rear a couple of weeks ago, 245/35x19 in size. Conditions being good, my car usually starts to "Hook Up" towards the top of 3rd gear, 1st and 2nd gear is pretty useless once any decent boost builds up. Better than the tyres I had before......grip was pretty much non existent with them. My car has a ZF 6 speed, standard stall.

Its a traction thing........you wouldn't understand!
