well i didnt like them at the start but they are growing on me. 215x45R17's. got the full set with locking nuts for $100, few scrapes on the front left but nothing major. and yes, they do fit in the guards and the right only just touches the guard on full left lock, but the 14's did too. ill just heat the plastic up and pop it in as it has a hump for the auto which isnt there any more

Before.....

very clean elite mate, front could do with a little lowering and some colour coding would be nice

and then all it needs is a 6g75 :D

yeh it does sit high in the front since it got new springs and shocks. i might just wind the shock bolts all the way down lol.
yeh ide prob turbo what ive got seeing as its a very solid motor but i wouldn't mind a duel cam or something, time will tell. she needs to be a sleeper, tho it is already around 9 seconds to 100 so prob better then most vl crummydoors and ea falcons lol

as dougy says, i changed all the electrics over. already had the same seats as the elite so the only thing that isnt elite is the paint and the trany is a manual.
