    • I run 20x8.5 with et35 and 245 35 20 tyres lowered with no rubbing, not even close, sits almost flush,looking at the fitment I'd say a 9.5 would be perfectly flush with a et35

      • well, another example, my 19x9 are perfectly flush looking from the top of the car down, i think they are et33.

        • Airport pickup?

          Ok, 1 final question before I purchase... What do the people know about pickup from the airport? Apparently I can save $250 on freight if I collect from airport rather than freight to my door... I imagine I would get a call from the carriers depot at tullamarine? Anyone had any experience with this?
          Cheers! Matt.

            You can make your arrangements with the Customs agency who process the customs entry for you.

                • V713, 19x8.5 ET45. Seemed like thoughts were split on 35 or 45 offset, so went with the wheel shop dude's suggestion.

                  • Should look nice, but ET35 would be better

                        interesting wheels, they look almost identical to the Marchesini forged alloys on my MV (bit of a price difference I expect though):

                        • Nice! The red looks great on the black, too! (mental note to self...)
                          The bolt pattern's quite different, though!

                              I think you have mate The acceleration is mind blowing! Out accelerates both R1 and Z1000 to 200k/h. It's got so much torque with the hp that it''ll accelerate in 6th gear from 70k/h to 200 in just over 8 seconds (compared to z1000/r1 about 11 seconds, and duc streefighter S about 14).

                              go grab one. You only live once
