New foot arrived!!

**kelvniii** · 31-01-2009, 12:16 AM

Got a set of 17" OZ wheels (8x17 ET 35) fitted today!
with Hankook Ventus V8 RS H424 (215/40 R17)

First feeling of the 17" a bit slow in pickup, but thats alright, since we have a turbo

the tyres are way better then the stock one.... ContiSportContact 2

The hankook H424 is a good tyre and good for budget as well! I can finally feel silence again! but still need to test few more KMs.... and let it run-in

Okay i'll stop here and let the pic speak.
sorry for the bad pics... i'll take some better pics tmr

Front:

no clash

The next project will be lower it to get a better handling

X2 they look the biz... I look forward to seeing them in higher quality when there is a bit more light

I always wanted a set in a 15/16 for my VR6...

thx bros!

I got them in a very best quote... PM me if you wanna know ^^

But if you want to get a best quote, go to a shop and show them you really know something, ofcuz you need to do some homework before you go there...
polo9n.info is a best place to study

cheers

ive got one in a 4 door - though im in South Africa - ive also read here somewhere that they are available in New Zealand too - so maybe Kelvniii is not from Australia

nice rims mate

no troubles with the 215 rubber? as even 205 seems to rub a little
