heya people.
was going to get the hopper stoppers kit for the front, but the other day i booked the torry in for a full rust removal and 2pac paint job, so hopper stoppers have to be put back for a bit.
as i have recnetly put the boargwarner diff in i left it commorore pattern and got it make 22mm longer for commodore offsets. At the moment i have standard LX torana discs on the frount.
basically i want to make the front commodore pattern on the cheap so i can put my commodore mags on so i have 4 matching rims. it would be good to have it to commodore offfsets aswell.
if not will it make much differance to handeling/ performance if my rear tyres are a longer wheel base than the fronts??

are wheel spacers illegal in WA???
i herd wheel spacers are dangerous too ? , is that true??

is there any other way to change to comodore pattern??
thanks People

i have an idea, can you get some blank HQ or P76 (10mm narrower) discs, redrill and have the rims off set to suit?

i pondered over this problem myself and decided to go with the HQ off set offerings, much cheeper/easyer in the end.

with the HQ brakes commo offset fits, on my car. P76 discs would narrow the track too much to run commo wheels
