Kice these are the wheels I had ordered for my FG F6, I had to cancel them when I got run over as being of work for 6 months money was to tight.

I would never run a anything bigger then a 19 on the front, Im still yet to see anything bigger then a 19 not tough somewher in the wheel well.

I had ordered a 8.5 and a 10 for the rear but the 10 was going to be tighter then a fishes behind.

Very similar design to the XHP 'Shorline' rims (except the XHP only comes in mega bling chrome )

nice looking rims on that site, im assuming they are going to cost a fortune say 1200+ ?

[GCTXR6]

just paid my powercruise entry

are they firm on the no burnout tyres on the back because I remember last year as a spectotor here and in darwin, heaps of guys had differnt rims on the rears ??

[djkice]

hahaha that's kinda ok I got 6x of my current rims, two are scratched though.. illl just chuck tyres on the two spares and swap em over.

either way 20" burnout tyres are in no way at all cheap

need brembos and new rims though

argent copies in 20's ? lol

Going on previous form, I think we should have a separate thread on the different rims that Dj will think of getting, will be getting and might be getting! This could take forever.

Leave the poor boy alone ya bully!!! mate just chuck some slotters on her....will look sweet as....hahaha

[discostig]

Hahahaha...

(edit) I have 4 12 slotters WITH RUBBER with some rust stored at dad's from my XF days if you'd like to make them fit DJ ^^^^^

Dam buster sounds good Mat. I'm sure if I'm up a tad early I won't be falling asleep once I start driving

My car is fluttering and sounds like it's dumping boost to atmo all of a sudden. Any ideas what it'd be? stuffed BOV? All I've done is replace the fuel filter lately and now it's like it's running more PSI or something. I'm a tad worried although the novelty of the sound fx is fun...could a cat collapse and let more air through without blocking things? Zorst sounds a tad meatier than I remember it used to but I could be imagining that.

Oh and I have been able to smell petrol inside (with windows down/outside air turned on) when I fill right up for ages too....read it could be fuel in the charcoal fume filter from dribble filling to get more juice in, badly sealed pump under rear seat (though lack of smell when windows up and air on recirc seems to rule this out), injector rails/fuel lines. Only seems to happen after filling up though, or giving it a bit of stick when it's pretty full.

Car is due for a service anyway, better PM one of the sponsors.

LOL, 12 slotters on a FG would be unique DJ. Plenty of bling and would get the nod of approval from all the old FORD boys I'm sure!

[discostig]

As would my recently discussed idea of TS50 badging on my XR6T!!!! Jeen-yus.

F****N bombednsh*t
