Sydney Jazz Owner?

The plate is pretty good - good thinking!

17s will fit with a few rubbing issues up back - but that is pretty easily fixed, but depends what you are after. If you want performance, go for a set of 15s or 16s at the most. I have 16s and they are good compromise as they are in good proportion to the rest of the car IMO.

The Indos roll on 19s so they will fit too if you want.

What style are you after? Jap race tuner, Bling-chrome and what's the budget? That is the big question

If you want chrome, head to places like Tempe Tyres. If you want to get something more JDM, Payless Tyres has a pretty good selection at some reasonable prices. They often have a lot of stuff in stock too which means you don't have to wait months on end for an order to arrive from Japan.

Also check out the "Traders" section as there are often some good deals in there...

Where abouts are you located in Sydney and what colour vibe did you get?

Thanks for that.... guess i'll go look around...
however, I might just stick with 17" roh rims, the car is a sirius blue colour, so mayb shadow chromes might look good on it...
i'm just around the Livo area, West Syd.

Congrats on the new purchase.

The ROH rims are cheap but heavy.

If you're down Livo way, check out Big-O tyres. Cheap stuff there...

heaheha
yea see how it goes.. i was planning on getting them painted white...but who knows... someone quoted me $50 a wheel.

So why are ROH rims heavy???

**Jus-10** · 16-04-2005 09:24 PM

$50 a wheel sounds about right...

I don't know why they are heavy....that's just the way they are made. I have just seen a few comments in the past from people commenting specifically on those cheap ROH wheels being quite heavy.

does that apply for ROH adrenalin rims??

**hingy** · 16-04-2005 09:54 PM

I'm also looking at Te37 look alikes.. i.e. like lenso VE
what is the best price i should be looking at when shopping around?
thanks

Those ROH Adrenalin ones are the ones I'm talking about...

Big-O do Lensos (They are at Moorebank). As I said, they are pretty cheap so see what they can do first and then do the ring around and see if anyone can beat it.

i've got the gunmetal VE on 15s.
u can try Baulkham Hills Tyre King (sorry don't have their number with me). you can get a set with Falken tyres for ard 800.

Big O Tyres will have the VE with tyres for around the same price. 16s will cost ard 400~500 more.

**hingy** · 18-04-2005 10:01 PM

serious????
that sounds good!!!
i'll try look up on the number... u sure its around the 800 with tyres? even with 15' ? how much do u think 16' would be extra??
