Hey cool thanx 4 all the replies!

Yep un4tunatly an na! where bouts is Mr Mag, Platinum and Wheel World?

I have a budget of about $2000 maybe a bit more

Hey PVA how much? I probably would not get them though coz i have a couple a friends with the same ones but they r damn nice i like the ROH adrenalins as well but again i would like 2 c wat else i can find preferably somethin not as common but if i cant find anythin beta then i would get ROHs 4 sure!

thanx again!:D

dont go to bob jane, or big places like that, the people that will do the best deal are your local small tyre shops, they are run by 1 guy, and they will knock off a lot to get the sale, I paid $1700 for my rims and tyres, and bob jane quoted $2400 for the same set.

When i checked around, most small shops were around the same price, they may not have the big display, but have access to the suppliers, so go in to a big shop, pick the wheels, and buy them from a small shop.

easy, and $2000 will get you a good set, with good tyres.

Hey Pva where bouts did you look and wat places did u find best 4 4studs?

Should i try second hand places?

bought off 2nd hand... I didnt look many places...

looking for 2nd hand does not give good choice of selections.

cheers

how about ROTA? im picking up a set of 4 18's for 990 soon from Vision R :)

gotta source tyres seperately though but if u put say federal 595 SS on you'll be able to get it all done for less than 2000

    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
    • I would like more noise related info for my truly uneducated guess  Does it do it at idle or when revving, clutch engaged, and disengaged? Does it only do it when the car is moving? I've heard "similar" noises from a clutch pack that left the chat room, and CV joints that have chewed themselves out But as Matt said, how's the yokes, tailshaft and centre bearing going after their last little issue Fingers crossed it is something simple  Weird noises make me cringe 
    • One other question, is there a chance that changing the idle speed can lead you down a rabbit hole and is the reason the tuner didn't touch it? Reason I ask is because if that's the reason the tuner avoided it then I probably shouldn't be touching it lol.
