Kael, Port Headland is OK, have some close mates up there but no one tolerates nonsense.

South Headland is FTL though

Hey Grug all the best mate, had an ACL recon done just before Christmas on the 22nd. Was in, out and walking on it (hobbling) the same day. Got some lovely Oxycodone (really it is great stuff) for the pain and the nerve block in my leg lasted a couple days after which was nice, however it makes pissing a challenge. It is more of an ache than any sharp pain, so it is pretty easy to deal with, and if it does get bad you have your pain meds to help you out. Another thing I found hard was sleeping, had to sleep on my back or side and I usually sleep on my front which is a no no, gets annoying after a while. If they are repairing your ACL then they most likely will take some of your hamstring from your calf/back of knee area which will cause it feel very tight for a while and it will bruise quite heavily.

Where you having it done?

Anyone know the best place to get MT slicks in 17" here in WA, to suit stock BF XR6 (8" wide?) rims? I'm guessing 245's would fit okay or do you guys try go wider?

Might even let the gf drive my precious baby if I get tired. I'm offering odds of 4 to 1 on that, place your bets!

I lied, not actually going to be in Headland it's self but I'm booking my tickets via...

Will be in various camps along the rail line between PH & and Shaw (Yandi area) for four weeks at a time. On the upside, I won't have to "cook" for myself for 80% of the time! Camp food/vehicle/serviced rooms etc FTMFW.

Cheers, they'll be using my hamstring. Getting it done at Joondalup by sport injury specialist in knees/hips from the Hollywood private hospital. How's the rehab?

Also, spotted J0sh leaving Galleria at about 8:50PM.. Car looking good as usual :P Don't ask why I was just arriving at 8:50... Lol

The 275/40/17 will fit on the BF XR6 rim alright? (they are 8" wide aren't they?)

Also what do you guys reckon is better, running Hoosiers or MT ET Streets? Are the Hoosiers radials, or do they need front runners to be used as well? I plan to run on street tyres up front still.
