    I didn't lose any money but I did put a few hours into splitting and polishing but I'm happy enough with what I got.

    Had a lot of interest in the 16x7 16x9 set. Mainly people wanting them for Holdens. One guy thought they'd fit his car so I said he was more than welcome to come test fit them, he showed up in this '77 camaro



    They didn't fit (5x120) but damn it was a nice car!

    Car went to mechanic yesterday for diagnosis and pink slip. Passed pink slip no dramas. Fault was diagnosed as problem coil pack. Hayden was kind enough to drop off a spare last night that I put in today and all is good once again. So have bought a new one online. All I can fault on the old one is a hair thin crack that I mustn't have noticed last time.

    Considering selling to get a mk1...

    Pictures of how it looked for GAD. Need to adjust camber and lower it a bit, thought my 205/45 would have stretched more considering they're 16x8's. Something to fine tune for the next event!























    Thanks to The_Hawk and Marcotto for the photos

    Really?! These had 215/40 when I got them and they had more stretch but the tyres were gone. Probably has a lot to do with brands aswell. I think I'll go with 195/45 next. For now I'll just try make these work...
