governorsam Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 trial fitted the mags today. before... after. has 195/60/14's on them, need 235 70 14 or something like that. looks a bit like a gasser, need hitting with the lowering stick. anyone know where to get lefthand threaded wheel shank bolts? do they even exist? will probably drill them out and use / convert to falcon studs. enough room for 4wd spec tyres..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
