hey all,

ive been searching round for some new wheels for my ascent and i was just wondering if anyone has bought anything from ozzy tyres...

if you have, are they good? good value?

im looking at getting a set of these:

Ozzy 068 Wheels

I've been quoted $1400 for these and tyres. I'm aware they'll be crap tyres but ill use them till i have enough money to buy some decent ones... what would you recommend for better tyres?

Ozzy tyres here in brisbane are around the corner from me and business doesnt seem to be 'happening' for them as corey mentioned.

They have alot of 'show' cars out on the corner to entise you but then you end up leaving scratching your head with their lack of service and over the top prices.

oh and if you want anything rather than "BLING" ....... go elsewhere

mmm white rims would look awesome on a blue corolla, thats what im hoping to get for mine eventually. I just checked out that Joey Kev guy, man he's got some nice stuff there. Im a fan of these rims, from him, too bad he doesnt have them in 17's that'll fit the stivo!

fake or not fake... it shouldn't matter if you're buying them just for the look factor. Besides, if you were after performance enhancing wheels, you'd want to look for something more reputable, hence more reassuring for the money you spend.

Identifying the difference (purely from looking) depends on how enthusiastic you are towards these things. Only a true enthusiasts could and would really see and know the differences.

having said that, his 18" wheels only weigh around 8.5-9.5kg each. So i can only imagine the 17" and 16" are much less than that.

But for the price he sells them, i couldn't complain :D

Of course there are "good" brands out there that cost a lot less. The ones you mentioned aren't the only ones on the market you know :P

Wheels can be expensive, i agree. I like wheels from brands such as Roh, Speedy, G-Max, Advantek, ANZ. Just head into your local tyre/wheel store and grab all those brochures they have lying around :D

I bet you can't tell the difference ... unless you parked next to a car with the real ones~ ;)

I hate ozzy tyres with a passion... They broke my strut top mount. Never paid for it even though they keep telling me they are ordering in the part. They didn't drop my car the height i wanted. They dont' put panels in back properly. I HATE THEM!!! :angry:

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
