Somehow I dont think i will be getting them.Ive heard from a few people aftermarket rims can bring the value of the car down.. also takes away the XR look from the car. Do you guys think so? My cousin who has some very nice cars tends to agree with them. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/209-rims/page/2/#findComment-1741 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you guys think so?I'd go original all the way. Not sure about value being affected but the looks and presence of the car, FOR SURE! You really only have 2 choices as I see it.1. wait for the 18's2. take the 17's and be happy.Besides its only an inch and you'll barely notice once you're actually driving it Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/209-rims/page/2/#findComment-1744 Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbo_nick some guy... Member 277 Member For: 22y 8m 1d Posted 27/11/02 01:09 PM Share Posted 27/11/02 01:09 PM or these..Can you get your hands on some AU rims such as the T3 rims? They would look pretty good... T3 rims most likely wouldn't suit the BA because the offset is slightly different front and rear on T3s. It's 36mm front and I think 24-26 rear. Rears might scrub agains the guards a bit.As for those two wheels, I'm not really keen on either. Then again, I'm not really a chrome wheel person.however, I'd go with the enkei wheel because they are FAR superior to most stuff in the market.

Somehow I dont think I will be getting them. WHOA!!! I knew Enkeis were expensive, but not that expensive...If you can, get the factory 18s, if not, stick with the 17s and wait for a few months, then sell your 17s and buy a set of 18s because I reckon there'll be heaps of guys with AUs wanting to buy BA rims.
