Looked pretty good actually and nothing like the taxi yellow either. The mkII rims on the other hand looked terrible.
Guest Lukkyphil Guests Posted 04/11/04 11:55 PM Posted 04/11/04 11:55 PM Oh My God, those alloy wheel suck......Picking mine up today, I guess I will be looking for aftermarket rims sooner rather than later......Rapid is not really my cup of tea, prefer the XRs in darker colours.

The new fairmont ghia mags look sh*te compared to the old ones too Wish they were 18's on the old ghia rims, would look unreal.The new rims are almost the same as the old, but instead of being dished in the spoke, its extruded.... Amazing what a difference it makes, looks completely different!

Posted 05/11/04 04:27 AM Posted 05/11/04 04:27 AM If someone could do this though, get a snap shot of the rims side by side. If anyone has a mk2 on order, or has one already, find a mate with a normal one, get out your spares (if you don't have a matching spare, just jack the car, or put them nose to nose) and take a snappy of it.Would be helpfull to put the two into perspective.
