    Nope! 285/70/17 :shock:

    Must be about time you got your 33s eh Glen :!: :?:

      Err.. 17's yuck!

      33's - First I need the 3" a arms and coilovers, esp. before the aus/usd drops too much!
      PS - I might need a buyer for my 10,000km OME springs/shocks... anyone? (WILLIADE???)

        Yeah I'm not a huge fan of those rims either. Glen, are your springs med duty?

        It could be a fun weekend project :wink: But I bet the bolts on my rear shocks are going to be seized real bad after 13 years :lol:

        Cheers,
        Declan.

          Hey guys,

          Someone on another forum brought up a good point re the lettering. I live in an area with lots of bluestone guttering where you have to park close to them to be safe. I'm thinking this might lead to scrubbing damage which will spoil the look anyway. Thoughts?

            Meh! White lettering or not... Just make make sure there's mud all over the 4be every couple weeks and she's all good :-)

              I wish I could find some time to get mud all over it Glen! The tyre place offered to flip them but I don't think I'll bother now.

                    I had the tyres flipped since the tyre joint was offering anyway; not sure they were happy about having to rebalance all the wheels though. They look good now, I guess only time and use will tell if that changes. I'll take some piccies when I get a chance.
