| does anyone in adelaide know if you can get 17's regency approved on a gem, i know the only problem when you put em on is the speedo goes out of wack but you can get it re-calibrated... thanks Sam |

for 17's the car has to weigh more than 1000kgs and be able to go from lock to lock without hitting the guards.
im getting my 18's engineered, not sure what has to be done for the 18's but i know its possible too. |

I think the engineering is using a hammer, and belting the inside of the guards out to fit  lol, thats what we did to my mates g/f's gem, it got written off, the wheel couldnt move, so we used a chain and a tree, wheel moves fine now |
