PLAYRZ Donating Members 333 Member For: 19y 10m 7d Gender: Male Location: VIC Posted 04/05/13 12:54 AM Share Posted 04/05/13 12:54 AM Hi guys. Considering a new set of wheels for the F6, looking at a set of custom forged wheels. Brands currently under review include ADV.1, DPE, HRE, Forge Wheels, Forgeline & Niche custom. Do any of our members run a set of forged wheels? Either 1, 2 or 3 piece? If so, care to post some pics and your experience with them, ie. costs, brand, quality, customer service, build times and specs. Would really appreciate some feedback. Cheers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really trying to a gauge how they look on the Falcon, fitment wise.I'm going for a cleaner look, sorta like this...Now I appreciate that we will never get stance like this on a Falcon but I would really like to see what results people have had with custom wheels. Even if you haven't done it yourself, if you have pics of FG Falcons with custom wheels lets see em!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MA91CK billet turbos and weathered engines dont mix Donating Members 1,346 Member For: 12y 6m 22d Gender: Male Location: Wollongong Posted 05/05/13 10:14 PM Share Posted 05/05/13 10:14 PM What do you mean you won't get the same stance? Right fitment, right camber and right tyre profile and size it will have better stance than that Audi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLAYRZ Donating Members 333 Member For: 19y 10m 7d Gender: Male Location: VIC Posted 06/05/13 03:21 AM Author Share Posted 06/05/13 03:21 AM (edited) No, you cant, and that's the problem. For CORRECT fitment (no demon camber/inside the guards/drivable/etc) on a Falcon sedan (in a 20x8.5 & 20x10), without modifying the guards AND taking into account considerations for larger brakes it's impossible to achieve a deep concave on these cars. Even on a standard XR you would struggle to improve on your options. It's like trying to negotiate your shoe size... there's a little room to move but you can't get into a size 8 if your a size 11! An approximate guide would be a +30 front and perhaps a +38-40 rear (keeping it in the guards). This is a long way of getting that deep concave look you see on alot of Euro and Japanese cars hence my interest in seeing what results people have had. Trust me, Im happy to be proven wrong on this but I have yet to see any Falcons with fitments that would prove otherwise.
