DennisF6 Member 53 Member For: 17y 2m 25d Posted 29/08/12 04:44 AM Share Posted 29/08/12 04:44 AM Hi gents, wondering if someone could tell me if the 19" rims on the XR6T luxury pack have a name or model number given to them by ford? I smashed a pothole of the goat track called the Bruce Hwy and have stuffed 2 of them plus tyres. Insurance is going to cover the replacement which is great, but I was wondering if places like Bob Jane etc can source this rim from Ford?Thanks Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By going through Ford spare parts they won't be cheap at all and I guarantee a new set will be cheaper so they may be happy to let you go after market. But they will probably wan't your 2 old rims (the 2 non-damaged ones) Edited 03/09/12 02:36 AM by Bellato Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
