OK now that my EF is gone I'm cleaning out my left over bits and pieces.
These are 14" E series rims with low profile tyres fitted to basically reduce the rolling diametre of the wheel. I was originally going to fit 3.9 or 4.11 diff gears to my car but with these rims you get the same end result (with a 3.45 diff) by reducing the rolling diametre but you can bolt them on and off when ever you like 
These make a huge difference to drive with and it basically makes the car drive like it's got a close ratio gearbox. I originally got them for track and drags but they were heaps of fun to drive with on the street too so I left them on alot of the time  (they'll make the speedo read a bit high though)
Taking off at the lights I was grabbing 2nd before I got to the other side of interections and the car accelerates in 4th like it usually does in 3rd. Is nice! At the drags they'll take off 0.1-0.2 secs off your ET The tyres are bridgstone G grid IIs and altho not being particularly wide they grip suprisingly well - just as good as my 235s. There's not alot of tread left (not that there ever is with low profiles!) but should last a while if you don't use them for burnouts. 
I'm chasing $100 for the pair, pick up in south sydney or I'll swap for BA stockies

They are 14's so it will me xxx/xx/14
They have a smaller rolling diameter then stock so 14 inch stock rolling diameter is 75 so these should be about 55 so xxx/55/14 and width looks to be 215 So my guess is 215/55/r14

OK they're 195/60/14s, but being 14s they're an inch smaller to start with.
I've also got a 3rd rim with a retread tyre on it I'll chuck in with the others - I'll leave i up to your imagination what it's good for 
I paid $200 for the 2 low profiles with not much more tread on them than they have now - someone gimme $50 for all 3

Any idea of postage to Adelaide? Probably too for me to justify it, but I wouldn't mind them for... track use

I really doubt it'd be worth it to ship them mate.
Where's all the Sydney rev heads when you need them

Nah still got them mate.
I was thinking about bringing them to the dyno day but I haven't got a new car yet! (hanging out for the right colour and options) I'm currently driving my uncles old hyundai lantra, but I don't think I could show my face in that
Atleast you don't have to worry about competition from me anymore in the NA 6 category

Was suggesting you might be able to flog them off easier if you had them on sale on the spot.. as pick up and delivery obviously wouldnt be a hassle.. thus tempting buyers...

Actually the idea of a swap meet over in one corner at the dyno day could prove quite sucessful

What's your best reading on Joe's dyno ? As far as I know (I may well be wrong) I hold the record with 174.7 rwkw (with stock ECU!) but by all means knock me off. ...If you can!
