Which Rims? BF 18's vs. T3 18's

[mattp]

Hey guys, I'm just after some extra opinions, I've currently got BF XR8 18's on my car, but I'm tossing up trying to get my hands on some Tickford 5-spokes (like the ones on b2tf's ute). Thoughts?
I might actually prefer the BF's I think, but maybe time for a change? The T3's would show off my new premium brakes once they go on too ;)





On a related note, and might sway me one way or another, if anyone knows anyone selling any, or wants to swap, or wants to maybe buy these, let me know (mine are mint, with brand new Sumitomo ZII's) ;)

Cheers,
Matt.

I reckon keep the BF 18's, they are unique, not many people have them on AU's

[SSVPom]

Agree - keep them !

There isnt all that much difference when its boiled down, but im gonna be different and say the the T3's they look awesome. But im biased :

I really don't want to know about the size of your bias......


On another note, get T3's.

Have you considered something that isn't on every other Ford?

I've seen maybe one Ford in the last 12 months driving around Brisbane with T3's, and I've yet to see an AU on the streets with BFs.
Thanks for your input.

how many sets of T3s have you seen around?

[ClassicAU]

Matt, I say get the T3 rims! I have always liked them myself, but could never find them. Plus, I want two of your BF's for mine anyway! I need a spare and one to replace my hacked wheel! :P

They are both very similar in style, so a change maybe good, if your bored with the look, me personally I like the T3s.

BF's are my choice, but i might be biased : :

Sorry, the BF's look good on your car. I did say on every other Ford, not every other AU, but even though you don't see them on other AU's they still look stock standard. If you do replace them, why go with something that isn't all that different?

The BFs get my vote.

Havnt seen one : (Except a T Series)

[Abacus]

I prefer the T3 Azzurros for looks, but they are a sod of a thing to clean.

Yeah, there's a beautiful black TL50 getting around up here, I've seen it twice outside the RBWH on Bowen Bridge Rd. Verr nice!

Haha, thanks, I think. That's part of the reason I'm thinking of changing, I like it all to 'match'. Sometimes I think I should've kept the TE50 17's I had.

[Oo_xrsx_oO]

T3's but I am biased too. Apart from the forums I havn't seen another non T series AU with them on the road. Good way to change the appearance and give it a clean factory look.

funnily enough i saw 2 BA's today with T3s and they looked bloody awful.
