EXR6T Member 224 Member For: 17y 7m 7d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 19/05/09 10:42 AM Share Posted 19/05/09 10:42 AM (edited) Hey guys,just got these new wheels for my car, not bad for $650 fitted and balanced. (plus 2 new tyres)they are 18's and I initially was going to just used my existing tyres, but they were completely bald on the rear so I had to get some new ones (eating into my intercooler fund )all in all I think for a cheap set of wheels they look okay, I'm fairly happy for the price... what do you guys think??

Look cheap and flimsy.I think the stock wheels look better.

These weren't my ideal wheels, but for my budget (nothing) they were just right.

I've tried every different angle with the stupid drive way. pisses me off, and it's the worst sound too. lol Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/57787-exr6t-gets-new-wheels/#findComment-878473 Share on other sites More sharing options...
