Hey fellas,
Thought I'd post here before going in the f/sale section come Monday for any AU owner keen for an upgrade. I'm sure many of you know the rims currently on my T3 which were on the XR8 before. They are on the market now cause it's time to move on. They are very rare,infact none in the country unless the importer decides to bring another set or 2 which I doubt. Genisis rims 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rears. 1 rim only 2 little nicks, can take pic if wanted other 3 perfect ! Ford centre caps Wanli tyres (sorry not too flash in the wet) 2 x tyres 50% 2 x inside edge wear. $1700 will consider resonable offer and maybe able to help with frieght if necessary. Sorry about the pics don't have many pics in home pc. Please pm as not to clutter the forum.

They are a nice rim. I've never seen another car with them on. Great price too.
So BD, any hints on what your getting, or will it be a surprise? |

I think the stockies look great. At least you have them to use until you find something worthy. I really look forward to seeing your next choice.

There's a new RC version of the Enkei RPO3's that just hit the Japan market- a 2-piece wheel, REALLY light and looks a bit like the FR Simmons wheels- being 2 piece you could get a unique size to really fill out the rear guards- I'd reckon 10" wide with rolled guard on slightly modified suspension under the rear of an AU...... :Up_to_som
Wheels are hard for the T3 I reckon as the car is really tough looking it doesn't respond well to "dressy" wheels - as much as I hated the Azzuros, there were moments when I thought they looked OK but I certainly wouldn't go there again....... Like Bucky, I'm really looking forward to seeing what you come up with Maurie....

Bucky the 5spoke stockys are one of the best Ford rims if only they were 19's I wouldn't even bother changing.
Too right Jim is hard picking what next,if I didn't have 3kids to feed a wife who keeps finding something we always need for the house I'd be getting something made just what you suggest 10" with heaps of dish !!! Whatever I find may not the the very best and also not so light weight but my TS is a street car more than a track beast as much as I'd like the other way round. I have a few on my mind it's just deciding which and getting the right size's front to back.
