After waiting patiently for (here it comes) 8 MONTHS, i finally received my new wheels, the reason for the delay is they are a ROH Modular wheel called Dragmag, first they said 10-12 weeks, i could live with that, but the guy that took the order at ROH didn't put the order through for the centres to be cast before he quit/got sacked can't remember which, so when i rang to find out where they were after 12 weeks they told me this and said it might be another 8 weeks, but with all the shipping delays it was a further 22.5 weeks on top of the 12 weeks. but i have them now and i'm stoked the wait ended up being worth it. so the wheels as i said are Dragmag's, front are 18"x8" with 245/40 and rear's are 18"x9.5" with 265/35 maxxis maz1's.

Looking good mate. As long as you are happy and the wait seemed worth it, that's all that matters. Where they apologetic about the delays?

I dont mind the look of those wheels. Their different but original in the fact I havent seen any other AU with them. Top points for choosing something different.

Cheers. I think they'll be a rare wheel on any car which is exactly why i chose them and they have an old school look to them, i'll be extremely biased in saying they look awesome.

If you can set yourself apart from the taxi crowd then go for it.
My dark blue AUsr3 with fairmont mags just blends into the scenery. The way I like it : Cheers Mick |
