    I'm hopping first thing in the new year.
    Will look INSANE with 22" Penatgons Rob. I've only seen a couple cars getting around with them, they defiantly turn your head. Can i ask where you got them, and what you paid for them PM me if you want to disclose?

    Cheers.

    $1700 from a guy in Vic, let me know if you want his info. They look good but ride like crap, I'm hoping that coilovers will help the ride but if not I mite stick with 20s and just use the 22s for shows

    Good price, thanks Rob. I'm currently running E1 GTS wheels, have been thinking of a change. The ride on 20's is quite good in my E1 Senator, i am worried of the ride quality of 22s. Your comment above saying, it rides "crap" just might not be good for a daily. I mayof answered my own question! They just look so good!

    Thanks Rob

    Hey Rob,
    man that is the best VE i have ever layed eyes on and red and black just work so well together, just a couple of questions that i would like to get some answers on is where did you get the red and black centres for your wheels and how much would you be looking at for a set of them, keep up the great work you have inspired me to get my ass into gear and get my car looking good.
    Cheers
    Ken

    If your worried about ride quality I'd say stick with the 20s mate, yeah the 22s look good but I'm starting to think its not worth the discomfort.

    Thanks ken
    I've had a few sets of the red and black stickers made up, the first few sets came out good but the red was not the same as the car so I had more made, I'll pm you some info.

    Re: Robs ve ss

    I roughed up the original silver with a scotch brite. Then a coat or two of rust guard. The green itself is actually just a generic spray paint from bunnings. Wanting the green made it hard to get heat proof paint. I do have a brake caliper clear to go on as well.

    Im hoping the original caliper silver, plus other coats and the heatproof clear will be sufficient to protect them. I also bought some brembo stickers to go on

    I hope the heatproof clear works out for you. I got some brembo stickers of eBay but I'm not sure if there to small 80mm/20mm I think they are.
