EL falcon wheels

[XRHATE]

Hey guys,

I'm new to forums so go easy on me if I'm doin somethin wrong.

I'm currently building an el xr8 with a blown coyote motor in it n I'm trying to get it ready for Motorvation in Perth soon but I'm having a lot of trouble finding wheels to suit an EL???

I've been looking into Asanti custom wheels from the states but ther also roughly $1500 per rim not including tires so I'd prefer to pay less than that for a car that's gonna b doin a lot of burnouts.

Does anyone know we're I can find wheels to suit?

Thanks guys

Callum

what size and type are you after?

[SnipeZ]

Show wheels are good. Chuck a build thread up about the xr8


Cheers

Preferably 20s. 20x8 on the front and 20x10 on the rear but anything close will be good enough. These wheels will only be used for car events with burnouts so ill b buying show wheels too for show n shine.
The type I'm after is a wheel not too fancy maybe a 5 spoke with a dish. Colour doesn't matter I can get it powder coated.

It's getting a 4 link put in the rear end now so ill take some photos when it gets back from there.

Cheers

you can get wheel spacers to use au - fg wheels you know that right?

[Chargd]

or just put stockies on the back for burnouts?

[XRHATE]

Yea not too keen to run wheel spacers while doin burnouts tho. I want to keep all wheels the same, just looking for a cheaper option than wat I'm being quoted by Asanti so if I scratch one during a skid I won't cry myself to sleep.

Do they make replica FPV wheels for E series cars anymore?

[Chargd]

i'd say so, but im not 100% sure.

[SnipeZ]

Yeah but fpv wheels don't have dish haha.

They still sell them at major tyre shops


Cheers

By something like Work/Enkei/WEDS wheels. Cheaper than $1500 each. More like $600-1k each.

Cool cheers guys. Might look into those dark agent replica wheels n get them powder coated black. Just gotta make sure they'll clear my rotors!

oh the love for your car. El coyote.

like 67rce said. there are a bunch of jap wheels that might fit. BBS maybe, there is also the option like every commodore, the Simmons. They can all be made to whatever you want

Wait, so you wanna buy black rims, then get them powder coated black?

[braad]

The dark argents arent black though

[Dumpsta]

Koya wheels do great packages with custom offset to +15 or +10 for under $2800 I believe.
