In Bellville close to PowerFlow.

Drive all the way down Jip de Jager drive untill you cross Tienie Meyer, There is a Shell garage on your left, keep on going, the road turns left and the place is on your right.

Can't remember the name tho!

ha ha ha ha, 19" joh.... haven't really thought of that, like that....

suppose they can hey, they do a "step up" as the dude said and then add a dish. 5cm rear, 3 cm front, yumee! the STAGED LOOK.

he said in the region of 1600 to 1900 a wheel for stepping and dishing.

Yes, you right... that place close to powaflow, mag wheel repair centre... will check their number, phone them and report back to you all.

I must be honest... I will be happy with 18", 19 is to much for me, and 17 just to little...

www.hitechmagrepairs.co.za

then go to gallery,
some nice examples there, crap photos though.

Just make it a 17 9j, Get some Hipari tires and there you go, super drift look! I love the look of that, or you can do it the stupid american way by fitting huge fat 305 tires at the back and look like a cross breed between an american hot rod and a ricer. I prefer the pain ricer drift look!

ps. Where did you get the wheels? Aren't they like lank expensive?

Yeah, I love the drift look, very staged, but 18 will just fill the arches better.

My car has been at uncle Rezlo for a while, so while its up there I decided to get the mags as well, so bought them from him.

They were a pretty penny..., but I bought six of them, so that I have a drag set as well. 4 of them has 245's on, for street use and the other two has 275's street ET on them for those traction days...

he he he, pretty secretive...

doing this.... http://www.rezlo.com/Pages/Cars/Luq's%2 ... Large).JPG

This was the sx that was running doors with the savspeed e46 m3T (T61) that caused so much havoc on all of the forums and streets.

Basically, that with a TAD more punch.... :D

I've been out of sx culture for way to long... haven't driven my car in almost a year... had some issues with panel beaters etc, and then the car went up to PE.

I'm very keen on meeting up, and getting back in the sx culture/vibe. Been missing out for way to long.
