Default anyone got pics of AU XR with BA XR8 18"'s ?

Exactly as the subject says, i saw a while ago a pic of an AU on here, with BA XR8 18's on it, and i loved it, and am seriously seriously thinking of doing it. If anyone has pics of their AU, XR or not, with these rims, please post em up.

P.S. are the copy rims of these any good ? (off chance someone has bought them) wheelking has original ford ones for $2880, and wheels driect have copies for $785.

Hahaha...Bob Jane offered me $400 for my set of 5 mint condition 18's (yes, genuine Ford) as a trade in on some new wheels the other day!!!!! Needless to say I told him where he could place his new wheels! Yep, you guessed it, I'm keeping mine on the ute....Cheers Linz.

If you are after BF GT copies ... I know some selling a set of 19" versions at the moment ... Matt (MRGO4D) has them up for sale.

I was a scrooge when it came to buying the mags i seen the price of the genuine ones 18 months ago and thought shoove it up ya.

So i went 17" copies but they look great and now itching to throw on a set of possibly rays rims that are common on the R34 skyline just $$$ thats making me think hard about it.
