[VR6] my cheap a$$ wheels + pics + coupla questions

[decksla]

hi all

i bought those $200 wheels from OzAudi. chucked on a brand new set of $400 205/40/17 and they fitted up no probs. cheapest wheel upgrade i have EVER done! they couldve done with a repair, but im impatient and didnt want to spend the extra money.

dirty car, dirty wheels, pics attached!

just some thoughts:

* new wheels slightly heavier. acceleration not a brisk even though rolling diameter is smaller, and braking requires slightly more effort.

* steering is lighter.

* handling is AMAZING!

rears rub on big bumps and so i need the guards (rear, maybe front too) rolled.

coupla questions:

1. anyone know a good place in melbourne to get the guards rolled? prefer a mobile dude due to shop contraints.

2. was toying with the idea of removing the wheel arches. is it easy to do? anything i should be wary off?

comments? for $600 i could not have picked up a better looking set of wheels that posed me no problems to fit (no spacers required!)

cheers
