Just let it go >>> Don't show Aussies up as being sensitive ... he's only having a stir about our ooooooops I mean their spelling or word use.If you have a funny comeback, then that may be different, just don't be seen as bitching about it.
mag wheels... Redzedmikey!!please please please tell me you own or know who owns the red zed on the far right in your pic???I have wheels exactly the same, (265/35/18) but have been running ford rims on the back for the past two months because my rear right is cracked. No one can fix it and I can't find any new/second hand ones...Any ideas mate?
They are Volks don't know the exact model, but they're pretty common in Japan, and considering they're kinda old-skool, aren't that expensive.Ben
that's mine. and that price you quoted is actually cheaper than what I got quoted.I didn't buy the mags, the car was imported with them on it.When getting a wheel alignment one time the guy told me the mag was stuffed and needed to be replaced (later turned out not to be true, and was actually a problem with their machine). I was quoted between $1900 and $2000 per rim.Also mine are only 17" not 18.Cheers Mark
Could be mine also >> Mine was on the righthand side, second from the front. The rims are Volk "F Zero " Challenge, 18's & when last quoted, were $2000 @. So drive carefully & avoid potholes at all costs. Cheers Kerry
The pic that KLR300 referred to is my sig pic, in which Wykked's is on the trailer, mine is in the middle, and Smurf's is on the outside. Was taken in Dubbo LAST Easter on the way to Z Nats in Brisbane ... yes the very same Shell station where all the NSW & Vic guys appeared on Monday morning!

Thanks Mikey, you just saved me from> pointing out the same facts. (It really is necessary to read all the posts, before answering any.)Cheers mate, was good to see you again. Lloyd :-Z
You've got to be kidding me...doh! I spent also 40 hours per wheel rubbing back, spraying and then treating with a protector (dries rock hard). If I realised I could have picked these up so cheap I wouldn't have even bothered.Where do these come from?Cheers
Oops - My post was quite clean, but maybe a bit sharp for the US sense of humour???? >D< :-ZMaybe I should have kept a copy? =)
