dam it i missed out on the real story there haha.

each to there own but i see it as an old school mind if u cant atleast appreciate the look.

its only going to get bigger as people want a different look than every other falcon.

cheers josh.

[OMY-747]

What's some good websites to get wheels from?

[pHaT`eL]

I really love this style. Shame it would look like arse on an EF wagon

[EFFalcon]

I don't think it would if done right.

[EBOOST]

yeah im with effalcon.

most people would think that about doing it to any falcon but the ones ive seen look good.
cheers josh.

JDM as ****

[bentls]

long as they just arent fugly wheels, it will be mint. thing is there is hella flush then there is flush because race car style too etc... its hard to pick what would look good.

for me, i prefer like my soarer thats why i have done it how i have done it, low enough to sit nice, but the offsets suffer with how low it is, as it rubs hard and i need my lock. i could raise it and go 10.5 +12 and the wheels would sit out a bit more, but it would sit higher... i prefer how mine is fairly flush while still being nice and low...


that angle makes it look like french fitment at the front, but there is like 2mm between tyre and guard at the top, so i cant get the wheels much more out, and they scub on the arches at full lock anyway.. if i raise it and go more camber could probly fit 10.5 with same tyre and +22...

i want to get more wheels tho, and see if i can get 17x10 or 17x11s all round


atm its 18x9.5 +22 all round with a 225/45r18 and 235/40r18 rear... the fronts are only that size cos i got the kumho ku36s 2nd hand off a mates mazda 3 mps, but when they are shagged ill be going a 235/40 or 225/40 which fits heaps better


here you can see the rim itself sits outside the wheel arch but the tyre stretch keeps the tyres in the guards

There's a black FG XR8 with FR simmons on FF that pulls of this look nice. I don't have the will power to set up Photobucket and get picks on here however..

[LOW_XR]

that tocchi. pretty nice

[bentls]

yeah thats tocchi he sold it a while ago now

[EBOOST]

and is still trying to sell the simmons i last saw.

have u thought of pumping the rear guards a bit bentls?

a mate of mine with a cefiro (chris is his name) just got one of those guard rollers like pete uses and kept winding it out and he fits 10.5 on the back in +17 (im pretty sure) he runs 225 or even 215's on them though haha.

i might try some of his wheels on my bf wagon haha.
cheers josh.

[bentls]

I cut and hammered my guards lol attempted cutting inner lips off but couldn't be fucked in the end as I'll be going wide body when I can steer better

My ABC's on the A31 Cefiro my mate had them on. A little bit outside the guards!

[EBOOST]

ill get some pics of my mates, its about the same but he has no camber anymore.
his guards are pretty pushed out but it looks tuff.

i really like cefi's.
cheers josh.

[67rce]

That's got 7.5° of camber there!

[EBOOST]

yeah u can see.

mate used to have 5 or 6 but killed tyres quickly on the track, they last a few laps longer with no camber.
cheers josh.
