          Well Chris,

          Short answer, no.

          Long answer,
          I lost my licence Oct 30 last year. fine was 1744, got defected (new tyres $800 (I got Adrenalin RE001's) which were rooted while I was waiting for my camber bolts from ECS), too low, Pod filter and exhaust too loud.

          Miscommunication between a mate and I so I was trying to catch up to navigate through Sydney together.

          Anyway because of this debacle, I have had to move till the end of April to keep my job as there was nobody further north than me I could bum a lift off.

          2/3 of my pay goes straight to accomodation so it's farkn tight atm. I perhaps "shouldn't" have bought the wheels financially, but was prepared to cop it a little bit because I knew the would look horn...

          I go second year next week which should ease things, but I'll have to prioritise/assess the situation anyway.

          • Sounds like a pretty heavy way to lose your license. Unlucky.
            I had a run in in August, and am still waiting to hear from the cops to hand my license in.

                Yeah, they didn't like 154 on the F3. Was trying to not hold a mate up, bit of a miscommunication but oh well. Live and learn...

                  Thanks mate. I was well gone, he was pretty nasty about it too though.

                  They are only 7" wide, but the change in offset, increase in width and the adapters should have them out far enough for good "stance" purposes. We shall see soon enough....

                            This is oging to sound stupid considering I am stretching tyres, but what about the load rating? I need 86V...

                            Thanks heaps, I havent done any formal research yet because adapters are first. Step by step..

                              Haha yeah it does. Could be a lot worse, not the end of the world. Just testing the patience and perserverance a bit at times.
