Copy wheels. ABOVE

Call ozzy tyres, they have an idea on what fits.

We have these. They all clear brembo

Good spotting on the fake FPV rims. Thought the inside face colour seemed a bit light but failed to note the caps hahaha

at least they don't look like this :(

Thanks for the clarification on all that, guys! Super helpful :)

I'm going to find a local supplier of the TSW wheels, and get a test fit done. Hopefully they clear!

Not that I can buy for a couple months anyway, but I like to get an idea and plan things out haha.

Thanks for the info guys!

And Locky, those wheels are so nice. The Japs certainly know how to do a nice set of wheels haha.. I had Enkei RS05RR on my 335i before buying the Typhoon!

Would love to find a set of Work wheels, would be different to what you normally see on a Falcon!

But, budgets are budgets huh :( I contacted TSW, let's see what they say! Otherwise maybe I'll find a local supplier who will let me test fit, just so I can get the sizes. :D

I also would like a set of Vossen wheels, but they're stretching the budget too =/

At least you know about quality wheels then. Sorry if that seemed a bit dumbed down then. kinda dissapointed at how little regard is given to fake wheels here ;

Im a sucker for Jap wheels coming from Nissans,

So I have Work VS-KF's for my falcon :)

there only seem to be a handful rolling around on work/ssr/rays ect

May not be your cup of tea but seeing as falcons are 5x114.3 like prettty much all toyotas/nissans of that size could always pic up a nice set of 2nd hand 19s for 1-2K and would look better and hold their value way more than some new local stuff

Was dead keen on a set of SSR Type C-RS for my baby and almost grabbed a set of 17" for like $650. Probably wouldn't have cleared the Brembos I ended up getting along with F6 rims to match though.

But I reckoned it looked MAD in my photoshop (back when I had mudflaps on still too)

Main thing I was after was they weigh like 7.5kg per rim I think. Awesome! Improved suspension and handling performance. Lightweight FTW

Locky - is that your s13, with the Agle Minerva's? :)

That's what I'm getting restored for my falcon :)

Yep they seem rare in australia. I relipped those from 17x8+30 something to 17x10.5+3 with 5in dish, same as the 17kfs were 7in now 10.5 as well. I have work equip 05's on it atm but just won a matching chrome pair of Minerva's for the front on yahoo japan last night :)

Also bother has SSR SP1's on his MX5. Super advans on his s13 along with BBS RS, Wantannabes and Rays touring evolutions (first gen TE's before the TE37). So we are pretty bad wheel whores, along with a bunch of wheels I wish I havent sold over the years. hahaha

What size are yours going to be, 18's? seems to not see them any bigger and 17s seem a bit less common than 18s as well ( at least in decent sizes)

Good to hear :) you have good taste, and good to see you modifying them too.

Just 18x8/9" +37 ... It's going on a daily wagon, so cbf going too aggressive.

Progress shot of restoration :)
