thats directly from wheelkings website, the site and then what it says if ur to lazy to click the link

http://www.wheelking.com.au/Wheels/t...1/Default.aspx

AU TS50
In Category: Ford > AU to FG Falcon > Genuine Ford 17 inch

These are genuine Speedline Tickford rims with genuine Ford caps. For genuine Tickford caps, add $220 to set price.

220 aint bad i guess id wait till someone was selling the rims and then keep the caps and sell the rims, that wya u basically get them for free

Hey John, Looks the goods.

How does the car feel with the new headers and cats now that you have had them on for a while.

Yes i am happier with the way it looks to and the best thing is that the tyres have plenty of tread left unlike my old ones
Craiag i am happy with the changes to the car but there is a ticking noise that i hear when accelerating that i havnt worked out what it is yet (hear it under load) tightened up a few header bolts but it is still there so im taking it easy on her at the moment doesnt seem to effect the performance though?
