Pics of the new tyres. 225/45 Yokohama C Drive on 17x9.0 +22. From the couple of u-turns I've done I seem to be clearing the inside of the wheel well, but haven't given it a thorough test yet. Getting into the driveway is not noticeably harder either, yay.

Re: BJK's '95 GPX
Yeah, even though it did make the 17s look even smaller than they already do, I did like how it filled the arches a bit more. But really the difference is pretty negligible, and I'll appreciate hearing less bumps and scrapes! Tim tells me they're nice tyres too, so I'm looking forward to how they handle once they're worn in.

Or maybe I should buy these... http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/18-x-9-5-15- ... e2a&_uhb=1
Except they cost more than I currently have in my bank account lelelelel.

Re: BJK's '95 GPX
I reckon a 235/40R18 would probably be alright. Tim's on 225 and it feels pretty good.

40 is just the percentage of the width

Re: BJK's '95 GPX
Intradasting developments. Tim got all the things for Regency done, and then heard a bit of a knock from the bottom end. Signs are indicating a spun bearing at this stage and it looks like my old motor might have to go back in. Won't know until Saturday when he can get the sump off and have a look.
Bloop bloop bloop.

So, the moral is I have to upload enough to come full circle so my luck turns around?Bennoz wrote:I think the quantity of your breakages are in direct correlation with the quantity of pictures you upload of it.bjk wrote:The universe is jealous of my sick ride.
