really should be 30 profile rears...

Why's that?

was Taleb tyres able to beat the prices of thewheeldeal?

Yeah mate, not by heaps but every dolla counts plus he's great to talk to so i don't really care for the price difference.

really should be 30 profile rears...

Thought i may as well explain why we went a 255 35.

working off the 245 45 18 rears, a 255 35 20 rear is only 8-9mm larger in diameter, to have the diameter match up with a 30 series profile we would have to go a 275 30 20.

Sean wanted a little stretch, nothing extreme but nothing too fat either so a 275 wasnt gonna suit, a 255 35 20 on the 10 will go perfectly with a 225 35 on the 8.5.

(a 245 35 20 on the rear would have matched the diameter even better, but A, the V35 comes with staggered rolling diameters from factory so this keeps them uniformly staggered, and B, there would've been more stretch on the rear, the 255 stretch will match nicely with the 225 35 front.)

happy to help

staggered diameter is a good look on a tractor, on the street it looks funny. i guess im just pedantic about things like that

Square setup looks good on your 4 door, staggered setup looks good on my coupe.

    • Gucci bags tend to hold their value well, so someone’s definitely going to get a nice find here.
    • @Ozdavroz Not going to get a better deal than that. Cash up front and ongoing payments. 🤑
    • I wouldn't even move it like gTSBoy is saying. I'd seriously do what Duncan is saying. Unplug the injectors, and unplug the fuel pump.  Pull the spark plugs out. Have a look in quickly with a bore scope if you want. At most, you can't spray a bit of oil into the bores so there is lubricant in there while you crank it. (Don't fill it, as it's only going to enter the exhaust, or spit at you out the spark plugs holes. Before cranking the engine on the starter, after a 5 year sit I'd probably prime the oil system manually. Easiest way to do so is to look at buying an oil filter relocation block, fit it to the engine. The pressure line going into the engine on this block you can then shove into some sort of oil pump, or put it into a bottle, with that hose going to the bottom. Fill bottle up with oil. Now seal the bottle and add a compressed air line to the top of the bottle. Feed compressed air in, about 20psi will be PLENTY. This will pump oil through the motor. Be aware, it also means it will drain back to the sump, so make sure you don't end up over filling the motor Now bolt the old oil setup back on (or fully install the remote filter system).   This way you've at least pushed fresh oil everywhere, then you're letting the motor crank to then do its own oiling. Then I'd tap the key to make sure it can start to crank, if the motor free bumps, then I'd just hit the key and let it crank. After letting it crank and seeing you can get real engine oil pressure, put new spark plugs in, reconnect the fuel system electrics, and send it.   Additionally, you can look to remove the fuel feed line to the rail, and divert it to a tank so you can get the bottom of the tank shit out, and just incase there's some crud sitting anywhere that gets passed the fuel filter (or is already ahead of it).   If fuel injection at the injectors ends up appearing to be a problem, you can dump the injectors into an ultrasonic cleaner for a quick flush clean out. Note this isn't as good as new injectors, or getting them pro cleaned and flowed    
    • All I can say is, that's still bloody awesome! No plans on caging it I'm guessing?
    • It seems you'd like your Skyline to go to a great home, that can keep it as a beautiful museum piece.  I feel I can provide the perfect place for it, however, I'm not sure I can justify so much money for a Skyline that has only been crashed 3 times. Due to this and market prices, would you be against me buying it for $100.00, with $60 to be paid upfront, and the remaining $40 to be paid annually in equal payments?
