LOL @ JETSNOT!

What did I buy? Staggered Hiros... Currently running BA GTP's which I like the look of, but I prefer the stance that 275's give the rear end :-)

The Vertini's are awesome looking wheels, however, I'd never go 20's in a B series again as running 30 series profile in the front doesn't leave many options that are load rated! And they are f*ckING noisy!

Happy to go back to staggered 19's... Better grip in the rear. Nice stance, nice wheel size, decent Tyres and better ride than 20's!!!

Can you remember what the tyres were in 20s worm? Lookin at some ACHILLIES "sound awesome dont they" 20in tyres for correct load rating. Can go a 90 load rating in most good tyres but I think our cars are 92 or 93 load rating. I think if you overload tyres the sidewalls crack etc.

Tyres in 20's with correct load rating: (245/30/20)

Nankang (sh*t... f*ckING LOAD)

Achillies (Felt ok, but only drove on the for a couple of hundred kms)

Neuton (WTF? Never heard of them)

Altenzo (The Bob Jane guys think they are good. I was scared to buy)

Maxxis (I would buy these if you could get them in Australia! But I dont think you can!)

Supposedly Austrye are bringing them out in this size, but that would mean you have to go to The Tyre Factory... Last time I went in there, a phone of theres ended up 20 metres across the room... :dontknow:

:beerchug: There is a guy @ TTG Dandenong... Shane. He is a f*ckwit. I ordered tyres. They said they had them there... So I went in and after waiting for two hours, they came out and told me they only had one. I stayed calm... They said they would get them in on Monday (This was a Saturday)

They had f*cked me around before. I rang them on Monday and they said they will be in in the afternoon... Have you checked? Yes...

I go in at 4:30... They dont have them. Ask did you check when I called? No. Why did you say that you did?

To cut a long story shorter, I was waiting for the new tyres as I had sold my old ones and wanted to get them off the car as a guy was waiting to pick mine up. My nan died that afternoon. I was in a sh*t mood. They had 20 customers in the store. I had a little hissy fit :dontknow::innocent:

Shane chucked the phone handset sideways... And started yelling at me. I picked up the actual phone, wrenched it out of the socket and threw it across the room. I think went to the nice little chinese girl and had my money refunded... And walked out :buttonit:

It's all about buying the right stuff at the right price... looking after and selling at right price.

Eg. My Vertinis cost me $2400 delivered. I sold for $2k with bald rear Tyres... I call that a win :spoton:
