Cheers Gipsy :D although I'm sure somebody will challenge that :lol: even Einstein wasn't certain of his theories.

PCD: 5x114.3 is probably the size you want

or these if you want stock steel: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/4X-USED-GENU ... SwBw5XQoY8


centrebore is too small on the later lux's. (you have to bore them out from 61 to 67)


The other thing with all those wheels is are the the right load rating?

Is this the only thing covering headlights?

I read through the ADR lights document (what I could understand), it seems that for high beam lights there is not really any restriction on intensity/amount/lumens. Does anyone else know?

I got a snorkel (sorry to everyone who told me not too). A friends uncle has a ute exactly the same as mine, he used it as a farm vehicle. The air cleaner box filled up with mud, and then cracked the box, filled the engine with mud and wrecked it. So I thought for 90 bucks it's a lot cheaper than a new engine.

must have gone deep to do that... do you want to swim your lux? Maybe your friend didn't change the filter?? they still suck dirt and dust even with a snorkel

Yea but the dust has to get a lot higher to get in.
I have heard everyone's opinion, and made my own decision :?
