iv been to berlin twice and thought it was really nice, excellent places to shop, eat and drink and places to go and see, a lot of things to see from the war on the tours etc, the reichstag and brandenburger tor looks quite intimidating at night all lit up. the main cathedral has also been left damaged from the war too, the tower is bomb damaged and the walls round the base are peppered with holes and chunks missing, plus black from fire damage. stayed in the hotel berlin. nice and quiet and about 10-15 mins walk to the centre. i would say there are nicer areas of germany. munich for example is very nice city. plan your stag when the beerfest is on? thats an experience i have family in bonn and nearby city Koln is very nice too.

prague as previously mentioned is also nice, been there once but i would love to go again. good food and drink and its also very cheap. approx 50p got me a full 24 hours use on the tram systems jump on jump off anywhere, and they are there to the minute all the time, stunning city too.

there is also a thing near prague which i may be suggesting to my mate for his stag a military excursion where you get taken into the country and get to fire all kinds of rifles, guns, go in tanks and generally get as close to battlefield 3 without joining the army

i have been to belgium approx 40-50 times over the last 10 years and lived there for 2 years too, in antwerp. brugge as mentioned is a very nice city, traditional and medievil in a way, canals etc. antwerp is really nice, superb main square littered with lots of side bars and restaurants, beers as mentioned also excellent. sparkling ice tea ( non flavoured like they do here!! ) is delightful and refreshing

vienna in austria is also a very nice city, but compared to the others mentioned here id say probably the more expensive, and austria itself is dearer. its probably on par with berlin costs. theres not really anything different from other large popular european cities although there are some stunning government and royal buildings and the palace is huuuuge ( you will only really get a site of these if you go on a bus tour though, local beers are good, as is the food, goulash soup or main course goulash is outstanding and nothing like the shite they try feeding us here in tins!

despite me having family in austria i have never been to salzburg, which has been voted on a number of times as thee most beautiful city in europe with nearby spectacular scenery. il soon be able to say iv been though as im going theer in november with any luck it may also have some snow, to add to its stunning setting

amsterdam is good too as people have mentioned, i was there for a day visit when i was in holland years ago

what about spain? canary islands tenerife etc? greece? bulgaria?

hope this helps you a little

thanks for clearing up guys. yeah price is per pair

those offsets are the same as the stock wheels im sure?

if they are the same widths i see no reason for you not to achieve the look you are after

il have to make some enquiries, but il get back to you

i tested the 25s on mine and the wheel moved fine in the arch. mine is low too

viewtopic.php?f=140&t=65867

i might be able to help you, expensive game though

im also selling my volk gtc faceII's which have done a few hundred miles and are in as new condition. different kind of wheel right enough, and reason for sale is they will not fit and sit nicely without a bit of arch rolling and a small 5mm spacer will be needed to clear the calipers if you have brembos, plus i got fussy and changed my mind for a different kind of wheel

but feel free to message me

i have a lot of fresh new spacers in stock. 20mm 25mm and a few 30mm that people have occasionally asked me for

cant help out at that budget though, as people have said, you may struggle to find them here

nice one guys

i organised a day out/drive/bbq and raffle etc with clan japan around this time last year for Marie Curie, a charity close to me and my family. it was via clan japan only really, plus a few people mentioning to mates etc and over £300 was made with a good turnout of cars. it really good day

this is far more organised, and already looking to be 3 times as busy

should be a really good day

here is the award for car of the day too

also a guided tour for 2 is going to be a prize of HMS astute submarine

hey guys, not sure if this is the best place to stick this, but if a mod sees a better place let me know.

advertising this on behalf of a good mate of mine, who is in the forces. it has been getting planned and organised for months and at first was only mentined to the members of Scottish car club Clan Japan. and mentioned to various friends of friends on forums such as MLR, skylineowners and the like.

to keep a long story short, it has received a lot more interest than first thought, and so has been turned into a really big event now. i have spoke with him last night and mentioned this forum and he was very happy for me to post it up.

here is a copy and paste of the event listing on clan japan

please note that the numbers here are members only from Clan Japan. there is big numbers turning out from elsewhere and last time i spoke to my mate, numbers reaching the 100 mark was mentioned. i hope this is so. it would be nice to see some 350z's too, i think im the only one

please add names to the list at the bottom, and i will update other forum

yeah, absolutely, if i had no large stretch the tyres would easily hit arches. i think normal tyre size for a 12 inch wide would be 315 or thereabouts.

im a huge fan of 18s on a zed. 19s and above not for me

just fitted these to mine a couple weeks ago. i have coilovers, and although its been lowered, its going further

18x10 front et12, 235/40/18

18x12 rear et20, 275/35/18

let me know if i can help you out

i have used them on some cars and not on others, havent really noticed anything if im being honest

main thing is to get hubcentric spacers, these slip on ones you can get in halfords and similar are not something i would buy.

im all out of spacers ( except a single pair of 20mm hubcentrics ) as of earlier today, but getting some fresh stock made up and should have them at the start of next week, 20mm, 25mm and a few 30mm too this time

should have no trouble finding a very nice zed at that money mate

also, it is worth saying, dont be too put off traveling for a good zed, especially if its via a member sale on here, chances are theres a few people who know the car and owner where its from. i live near knockhill, and i travelled to birmingham to buy mine. did the same with my rx7, except that was on the southcoast! its not that hard to do

very impressed, canada looks great anytime iv ever seen photos. love the house, location lakeside and views out back.

my mate was in canada a few years ago, said it was great

yeah they are very nice wheels too. let me know if i can help you

i have 18x10 et12 with 235/40/18 front, and 18x12 et20 with 275/35/18 rear. its a brave fitment, with the wheels sticking out and the stretched tyres just legal with the arches. but no problems at all. cant see an extra inch causing you any problem matey

i doubt you would get the above wheels in that link for less than the starting bid, if anything the starting bid probably wouldnt meet a reserve. id expect bids to get to 15/1600 before a reserve was even met. people just dont have that kind of wonga to spend on a set of wheels at the moment, im going to have the exact same problem when i advertise my volks

very nice z i was sitting near on the dual carrageway from brucefield all the way up to the police station

anyone on here?

"drift" sticker on rear bumper, number plate ending COH, and by the looks of it, a proud owner of a cream coloured nismo beanie!!

i was in the white bmw if you are here and wondered who was having a look

you have pm ian

yeah, keeping a regular supply of these now. got 2 pairs of 20mm and 1 pair of 25mm left but pushing for a new batch next week

haha, yeah, the "yeah buddy" is from jersey shore, its pauly D who says it though

it turned out to be very poor this year, i stayed for an hour and a half. introduced a parking fee outside, quite a high one at that, and the entrance fee was more expensive too... but there was less content inside, lots of space unused, and the standard of cars were poor, it was things like corsasport, scottish ford owners, and a couple of regional club stands, honestly no more than 10 clubs outside, compare that to the 30+ of year previous. indoors was less cars too, and the carnival swings that are normally outside, took up a lot of space inside. advertised as scotlands biggest car show... hard neck!!!! very poor

infact, given the choice of going again if its like that, id go as far as to say id rather hand a w ank with a handful of razorblades

Glad you got them on I can feel the hatred for the tyres brewing already though...

come on at me

its all good, i know its not everyones thing, but its mine

and its the smaller of the two lucozades, still the best part of 5 to 6 inches of dish though

gonna start a build thread shortly, so more pics will be up there, plus i will add more when i have put the coilovers down a little more

here are the much awaited pictures, sorry about the quality of the camera phone

im ver happy with the new wheels mate

its not for the feint hearted, well, the rears arent, but for me its perfect. i love the colour hyper black against the black paintwork too.

front : 18x10 et12 with 235/40/18

rear : 18x12 et20 with 275/35/18!!

the pictures really dont do it justice either, seeing them in person is much better, especially the 12 inch rears

now all thats happened i realise i need to wind the coilovers down further to keep the tops of the tyres snug

cheers

is this a part that will partially solve my problem?

blue tooth isnt too essential as i never answer the phone or even touch it to be honest whilst in the car
