Sorry to hear that mate and will keep an eye out.
Tell your mate to check Ebay listings and keep an eye out for the local McDonalds where they may end up on a VN commodore.

A great idea! Quite astute! I reckin you could be on the money.

kuzman89 · 07-06-2009, 07:55 PM

hey guys, kuz here.

If anyones seen or heard anything please let me know, will offer a cash reward if the rims are found/returned.

They are 20" hp design rims, theres a few on ebay, but they are all from sydney.

In the meantime if anyone has another set of rims for sale let me know, 0428 563 412, I have exams this week and need to drive to uni for them, insurance wont do anything till like friday IF they do anything. Might be loosing my job as well, missed out on 2 days of work, few hundred bucks gone.

Thanks for all the help. Glad you didnt delete my thread like they did on justcommodores,

:

****es me off coz i work my **** off for it, took me 3 months to get enough money for those wheels ontop of payments.

Cheers

sorry to hear mate, i will keep a look out. unfortunately those wheels are fairly common so will be hard to tell if there yours or not. good luck in finding them.

I did wish the guy luck I was just trying to have a laugh not being serious at all, hence why I said I was being too harsh. I meant no disrespect at all in my post it was simply a joke and had no seriousness behind it.

haha its fine mate, no qualms.

Anyway guys, I got 20inch supersports off a ls1 guy who owns a tyre shop, when i fitted them I noticed that the wheels move in and out about an inch (front left tyre).

Dont know if the wheels are warped or the rotors are bent?

Any other explanation? If you drive above 50km/h theres a really big shuddering happening. Annoying as, guy pulled next to me, he said it looked like my wheels were gunna fall off.

Annoys the hell out of me, driving a new car that runs like a piece of crap, grr.

Went around to a few rim places today, told them about the rims and the reward. Could you all do me a favour and mention these rims to all ur mates and tyre places (if u ever go to one lol)

Would love to catch these guys, steal my rims, dent my car, scratch my car and up my steering. On a new car.

kuzman89 · 11-06-2009, 02:30 PM
