You know there are 2 cars round here with ELGT rims and neither are anything special. ONe is an EF V8 fairmont wagon the other is a povo old XF ute at the Greengrocers. I keep thinking the ute is such a waste I should offer to swap wheels with him for a small sum.

^^ I second that Timmeh, I used them a few weeks back to get some parts sent over from Adelaide, I was amazed at how quickly they did it and also the price it cost!

I highly recommend you use them people!!!

The tyres that came with it I was told were second hand. But man they got so much tread I reckon there is it 99% left.
I don't know how good the tyres are maybe someone can tell me, they are Dunlop Sport 2000SP.

I buy Fulda tyres for grip.
