Hey guys,

Can any of you fine gents tell me what rims these are? After a ton of research and looking around, I think these are some of the best I've seen. How do you think it'd go on a white F6 with a bit of low?

EDIT - Are these the KOYA Bathurst Blacks? Shame... Only come in an 18...

I've heard some pretty bad stories of the copies being pretty cheap and nasty...

I see it quite often, not many aftermarket wheels are as durable as the oem wheel

G'day, new to this forum, but thought I'd share a bad experience with after market's. I bought a XR6T ute Feb 2011 and got 19's Dark Argents off ebay (Wheels2u - I do NOT recommend). Nothing but grief from day one. 3 of 4 wheels cracked (several times) and many buckles.Wheels 2U refused to cover under warranty. This subsequently bent left rear axle which Ford obviously will not cover......so don't go after market!

I've just put 18's Speedy Panthers on which clear the brembo's and had them painted saturn black. The ride's a lot more comfortable and lifetime warranty on wheels. And pleasantly surprised with looks.

If only I had my time again.........

PS: I'd still go dark argents.....but genuine. They just seem to suit the car best.

Good luck

http://wheelking.com.au/Wheels/tabid/196/ctl/ViewItems/mid/649/brand/2/Default.aspx'>Wheel King list genuine FPV argents at $895 per bare rim, and I spoke to Ford spare parts a few weeks ago and they want $1140 per bare rim.

If you insist on genuines that's what you're looking at, unless you find someone selling a set after changing the wheels on thier FPV, and it is quite possible they will have some sort of gutter rash or marks.
