Does andody have some 255/17 tyres i can borrow, or some 245/17 semi slciks? They do not have to be roadworthy, i just need them for the panel beater to check guard clearance with the new offset rims i have.

Std issue bribe of a case of beer to whoever can help me out, or even if someone knows who may have some for sale cheaply

I have both of the tyres you need but they are on rims. You can use them with spacers to get correct offset. They're both on 9in rims offset about 38 or 35.

They're here if you want em.

ask michael, not sure what he has but he has heaps of 17"s lying around

otherwise try some secondhand tyre places, they may have some unRW tyres they are throwing out and you will be saving them $5/10 a tyre to take them so it wont cost you anything

there's northwest tyres in coburg, fawkner tyres on sydney rd

you could probably try bob jane and all that too

You flaming champion, I think my wheels are eit either +20 or +22 and 17 x 9 and plan on running 245 semis :)

LOL, so you ok if i borrow for trial fitting on my car? I have a few set of wheels which i can give you. Either some 17 x 8.5 + 32 Work rims or some 17 x 9 +34 Gram lights so your car is at least still mobile. Perhaps pm me your mobile number :)

Strippers are on me when i get back :banana:

    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .
