And just to note, my standard 17 inch BA XR6 wheel's are currently on an EL Falcon, so they do fit but they did need spacer's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im looking at getting some Mickey Thompson E/T street radials. Prefer not to get 17's....That’s what I’m planing on doing; Mickey Thompson’s are a lot cheaper in 15’s.As far as I know, there’s no 15 inch wheels for the BA's, but there are 15’s for the AU’s.I guess the main question is, what size breaks are on the rear of the AU’s and are they the same on the BA’s?Micksta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micksta Member 159 Member For: 19y 6m Gender: Male Location: NSW Posted 17/04/08 12:09 PM Share Posted 17/04/08 12:09 PM Yes confirmed today, 15inch wheels don’t fit over the rear breaks, but there are so close!So my plan is using custom made wheels, with Ford centres and a high inside rim, welding the centres further out to allow for the brake callipers.I will keep you posted when I come up with a solution.Micksta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
