What coilovers are they bigVAN? And are they 20s?
-
You'll get what you paid for, so don't overthink man. You also can't compromise on safety. Spend abit more and get better imo. Imo the deals at Ozzytyres today was as good as it'll get.
-
I assume the stocks are +45, take out the spare and check on the inside of the wheel should be marked somewhere with ET45. Which wheels are you getting? From this it's 19.8 +45, BUT don't you want to go staggered? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/19-inch-A-market-Lexus-ISF-Style-Wheels-All-Lexus-Fitment-Toyota-Subaru-/330749835847?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4d0239fa47

lol still young and about, there is no decisions to be made, get 19s! Tyre life depends on brand and setup ie if you lower the car and have camber issues. A good set of tyres will last atleast 30,000 km if you maintain it well.
-
Initially you'd feel a big difference but overtime you will get used to it. I suppose it largely depends on how you drive the car, do you have kids? going to 19s you just have to drive it more conservatively.
-
I think the biggest difference is the weight. Height wise i recon it's hard to go pass the stock of 215/55/17 becos you wouldn't want to go more than 35 series 19s tyres. 235/35/19 is the ideal size.
-
Too meshy for my tastes but it's entirely your choice :)
-
And this is the Vertini Magic for $1995 from $2300. I will be going green with envy if you go with this! dont'a ask why.
-
Hows this for a quick job?
-
mate, i can photoshop any wheels you want. give me 15min on the isf wheels.
-
fivese7en, there is a further 15% off tyres and wheels at OzzyTyres this weekend ( i just got an email). Mate, i recon you should go there and check out the bargains if you are near the area. Savings eg, 19s for $2300 - 15% = $1955. And you might be able to get it down further if you haggle. Le me know and i'll go there with you!
-
DJKOR, is there a way to get this fixed at the mechanics? Bty thanks for the informative post. Ps your avatar is NWS but HS (Home Safe) lol.
-
That's impressive bigVAN. Congrats on the savings.
-
Was the $600 price from the US and not including shipping? There is no difference going from 17s to 18s cos the thinner tyres will balance out with the increase in size of rims. That ISF replica $1800 seems to be the price from Tempe, AGR, ST George Tyres etc. BUT i recon ask for better tyres, get the wheels and go to Bob Jane Granville and ask for Jeremy he will give you good tyre deal!! Ps, i'll be going there to take back my 18s i left there when i upgrade to 19s. SEE YOU THERE!!! :)
-
The general tyre for 18x8 is 225/40 BUT I think 235 series is better. 235/45 for comfort, 235/40 for looks.
-
It's everytime and even on level surfaces i'm afraid. It doesn't feel smooth when getting it out of Park (P) and also there's the clunk sound after putting it into gear. The grazing is pretty bad.
-
Does anyone else find their gear stick not slidding out of P easily? sometimes i have to give it a good yanking and it makes a bad grazing noise :( Can this be resolved?
-
Anyone thinking about getting coilovers?
-
Yep i'm in Syd. Is $600 including tyres?
-
$28K package has got to be the priciest wheels i've heard. A friend of mine bough a HRE wheels which custom offset, colour finished etc guarantee to fit! for 2K a 19" corner (without tyres) so all up around $12K. I thought that was ultra pricey lol. Get them on and we do a meetup man!
-
I don't think they are the ISF wheels man. If you are referring to the new ISF. Here it is. Edit: They must be optional wheels. But 18s? go for 19s man!!!!
-
Oem is good but it leave that silver trim which i don't like.
-
I can't remember where i got mine from but take a look for yourself. It's cheap and you get what you pay for. .
-
How much are the Kings dropped? Here is your next mod http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/TOYOTA-CAMRY-Set-4-Door-Weathershields-2007-2011-/190639005220?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2c62f85e24
-
If you get the correct offset you won't need spacers. Are they oem wheels or replicas that you are getting. If replicas, i'd go the ISF ones. Here is mine, potentially up for sale. I've already ask Bob Jane for exchange...waiting for themt to get back to me.
