Hey all,
As the title suggests I splashed out and upgraded my VY SS 18s to VZ Clubsport 19s.
I was getting bored with the old wheels and then these came up and i couldn't resist.
Plus my car has just had her 21st birthday, so I guess it's a delayed birthday present for her
Let me know what you all think!
Later,
Jason

Thanks... I will be selling the old wheels to help fund the new ones!
I will clean them up, take some photos and check how much tread is left on the tires and then i will chuck them on Trademe. Although i will offer them on here first in case someone is interested!

I was giving it some good thought - but it's not looking probable... I have some epic deadlines to meet and i have to work that Saturday - i'm trying to get out of it though... i will keep ya posted.
Hopefully from Jan onwards work won't be so bad cos most of the deadlines will have passed and i can resume a somewhat more normal life... Need to sort something out for Jan, Feb or March... or all 3 perhaps.

I got them for $2300 in the end. I thought that was a fair price considering the mags and tires have only done around 2000kms. Wheel king in Aussie charges $1980 (converted to NZ$) for the mags alone and these are basically like new as are the tires

I thought about those mags but i don't really like the black centre parts on those mags. Those excluded i'm not really a fan of any of the VE series mags on VL's - i don't think they suite them that well. Also i couldn't be bothered getting the centres bored out and all that pissing about!

Firstly; car looks mint - good work.
Secondly; damn you! I have these wheels sitting under my bed waiting to go on my car! Heres hoping my car looks as good when its on the road.
And here is another one of my famous multi quote/multi answer posts...

Haha... Too bloody right! I used to think 19s were too big, but someone convinced me otherwise. The more i thought about it the more these wheels started to grow on me and eventually i had to have them. Also I have only seen one other VL with them so it helps make my car more unique.

Firstly: Thanks... I DO try
Secondly: I guess great minds think alike! I'm sure your car will look just as good as mine, if not beta... when it finally gets on the road How far away is it?? I'm keen to see it.

Haha... I think there might be a few more floating around but they are few and far between - although Aussies don't seem to come into the NZ section very often!
