well my rig is now defected.
I have to put the 30s back on and change the seats back to standard.
Then take it to a roadworthy place get a roadworthy. Then take it to transport. Oh and i lost 3 points.
What a great country we live in, if only it wasnt so screwed up by wankers passing crap rules.

I think you'll get a ROADWORTHY with 30"s... but then when you take it in to QLD TRANSPORT they'll ping you for it.
The biggest legal tyre is about 215/70 or 225/70. You can only go 15mm bigger than stock to be legal in QLD.
Borrow a set of stockers off someone to save yourself heartache - even if you have to buy someone a slab to borrow them for a week.

sorry to hear it dude
Yeah borrow some stockers, I can get you a set for a week for a carton if you're desperate. They're not mine or they'd be free
I gave up trying to build a zook in Qld
