Can't imagine em on a falcon yeh they sure are, I think they would suit the fg shape nicely.. Though mrs has a VW Scirocco R.. should be able to squeeze some 19x11's under there! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sux.I'm back to looking at the rota grids, but whats up with the colour on their web site? it seems different between wheels.18" Rota Grid in Gun Metallic18" Rota Grid 'R' in Gun MetallicI really like the 2nd photo, but the top photo almost has a bronze tint to it.Has anyone seen these on a nitro falcon?Do you think it will look good with the flat on front and concave on rear, I think it will but wonder what you guys reckon.Yeah they definitely have a bronze tint to them I bought mine in the hope for the gun metal colour fitted to my viper FG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakooma New Member 8 Member For: 10y 11m 22d Posted 20/06/15 07:14 AM Share Posted 20/06/15 07:14 AM Hey fellas,I've decided to get a set of rota grid/r for the fg and from everything I've read for the best fitment I need: 19 x 8.5 +25 with 235/35 front and 19 x 9.5 +38 with 255/30 on the back. Going for as flush as I can with the car being lowered on sssl/ssl king springs while still being able to put down 300kw.Anyone see any issues or possible corrections for this setup?

You will be looking at the Work D9R, it is the successor to the XD9. Quick search on ebay and you will find them for 19x9.5 = $351/ea, 19x8.5 = $337/ea, 18x9.5 = $337/ea, 18x8.5 = $322/ea Sorry about the late reply man, been busy. I just upgraded to an FG F6, and would still like to know if I can run these wheel sizes? Would rather 18's but I might be getting some 6 pot brembos off a mates FPV.Personally I don't want to run camber, is the FPV's body wide enough to fit it flush? Or can I get away with some guard rolling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like the whole jap thing about putting the widest rims and then tiny tyres to make it fit....I don't see a point going wider and not chucking on biggest tyres, but each to their own I suppose!Did you have 18s before? Noticing much difference in handling or harshness by going to a lower profile tyre? I guess having a 35 all round shouldn't be too noticeable.
