Mario Mendoza Member 82 Member For: 21y 2m 4d Location: Blue Mountains Posted 31/05/04 04:10 AM Share Posted 31/05/04 04:10 AM HI All, Just a quick one.My mate has a 99 AU ute 5.0L (not the xr8) supercab. He wants to fit 19 inch rims to it. Not too concerned with width just yet, mainly just want to know if fitting 19 inch diameter is going to cause problems and go from there. Does anyone have or know of anyone with 19s fitted to an AU?Thanx, Pete. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/11055-au-rim-sizes/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm prolly wrong though, my uncle has a V8 XL and said he couldn't change the wheels for this reason. hmm seems a bit wierd though Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/11055-au-rim-sizes/#findComment-128685 Share on other sites More sharing options...
