i know what you're going through Razz

just bullshit about how you're a uni student and work part time and how you've learnt you lesson and having it back will help you that much more etc..

then once you have it back.. DONT FUCK IT UP AGAIN Razz

because they'll hold it against you Razz

Hey mate - was checking your Rex out last night. Those rims you have - I've been looking into a set of these for my car. They come in the staggered off set I'm after and would allow me to run 285 rubber on the 9.5 rears and keep 245 on the fronts. Plus, they fit over the brakes!!

Plus, they are 7kg lighter each than my standard FPV rims!!! A saving of 28kg all up of unsprung weight!

Couldn't see you around though when I was checking your rex out at Clive Peters.

Where did you source yours from?
