Feb 2011 at 09:51 rolling the arches would chip the paint on the arches. Going down to 245 would help a bit but not enough because the whole rim is out further than the arch and not just the tire. Thinking of putting in these? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HSD-Coilovers-Vauxhall-Monaro-and-Omega-/190352499293

Feb 2011 at 12:20 I reckon it would help a hell of a lot, big difference between a 245 and a 265. Even if the wheel stuck out the stretch on the tyre would be enough for it to not catch the arches as much. The offset on the AZEV's is gonna be low, like ET13 odd low. If you look under the centre caps you shold see it scratched into the metal.

Feb 2011 at 19:16 The bodykit is a copy of the Steinmetz kit for the pre facelift model. Steinmetz don't produce the kit anymore . But the copy can be found on eBay. And the quality is like the orginal. Not quit sure about the grill (I have one just like it)
