I love the look of the phoon 19's but assume there's no chance they'd fit/work. I want to do something with the rims, but don't really like many of the aftermarket options.

I was looking at FPV 19"s for ours and came up against a wall everytime.The next problem will be the tyres to fit the rims with the right load rating.This is why my wheels are still stock. I think mine would look awsome with the 19" F6 twisty rims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guests Posted 13/04/08 12:21 AM Share Posted 13/04/08 12:21 AM 2 Tonne dry....So 21ookg with fluids, only about 2ookg's (5okg a corner) heavier than a GT-P. Surley this shouldnt be an issue, wouldn't be any different than loading the GT-P up with 5 adults or towing with the max weight in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mynameisplayer Member 27 Member For: 16y 9m 8d Posted 10/05/08 01:30 PM Share Posted 10/05/08 01:30 PM Who has bigger than stock rims on a teri? I want to get the 19's ( load rating is for tyres, not wheels....) but there is a bit of hype on the forums for finding load rated tyres to suit. Havnt done the sums yet, just want to see what looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
