the rims are centerline convo pro's
thats correct. 2 piece rim the dish is seperate so you can get a bigger/smaller dish. looking at $1500ish for a set brand new. guy who fixed my car had a charger, valliant and HK monaro all sittin on them.

i went to bridgestone and had a look around. they have a courier promo with 16's and equivelant tires to 32". looked very tough, also had the same torsion bar front end as mine. they are fully wound out and he said that it has taken its toll on parts and worn bushes and other components which is ...

The pic is good, but look at the adjusting bolt. It's already cranked pretty tight. I don't see much more lift coming out of the t-bar without reindexing. im not sure what im looking at here im completely new to this. my previous cars have been trying to sit them as low as possible! from what i ...

Yea you are on the wrong track... The less offset you ahve the further 'in' the wheel will will resulting in less arc when turning and going up & down leading to less rubbing. Make sense? yes, complete sense, i didnt word it right but its what i meant! :oops: with the triton offset i will still ...

At the rear of these is a thread and a lock nut. undo the lock nut and wind away. Lift the front of the vehicle off the ground makes the winding easier when you do it. Count the number of turns you do so you can do the same to each side and return it back to normal if you want. I think the biggest ...

i was under the impression that because there is no leafs or springs under the front, you couldnt do a suspension lift? is this true? i do need to lift the car but how can i do this on the MK?
