Excellent. The wait is over.

I think I'll pass on the XR5 meet. My club has a run planned for Sunday, so if I do go, it will be with them.

Have a safe trip and enjoy your new car.

Very nice. I can understand why your keen to ditch the wheels. Of the MB, wheels are not as nice as the MA. Everything else,MB wins in spades

The pipes could have been bigger though. I still reckon the dump pipes on the MAs are still better looking. If they put bigger ones on the Mondeo, then i'd approve

P.S. I agree, the stock rims on the MB are rat **********

post up some pics of your new wheels and some overall shots to show off the window tint.
What size of wheels are you fitting, still 18's or bigger???

hi marcus,

there's 2 lots of pics of my car here:

http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthr...0&page=7&pp=30

just scroll down till you find the ones with my name next to them...

i changed the wheels way back in april. stuck with 18x8 so i could use the same rubber. also was worried about ride comfort if i went to 19's or 20's... saw a titanium with 20's on it today. looked good but he said the ride was crap.
