I hate the rims too - they came with the car. I think they're betta suited to an Escalade or some VIP ****.
Engine is semi stock for now - trying to get the **** registered on the Westcoast is a bitch. The rims @ 9.5" wide are to big for their regulations, so I gotta get me 7".

Okies.

1) In WA (West Oz) - they won't give you anything over std width. Mine are 9.5" so they won't allow it, even with a permit. This is straight from the Depts mouth.

2) The numberplates are soon to be changed. The car was bought from NSW, but I have new slimline plates going on asap.

3) The bodykit is a "Bodyform" Revenge kit, but like 99.999% of bodykits, it's probably a hybrid / mongrel / knock off.

yes - but check the regs anyway - not sure about WA, but there may be a loophole - as you may be able to use the same width as the largest optional factory rim of that car.

I have factory BBS 8/8.5"

Did you negotiate the price any lower because of that?
