hey all

Morgasam, back from a hard night out on the floor

I want to make my very stock car look better and have decided for a set of
19" rims
I saw a nice Gt the other day at the local shopping centre i think,
Pretty sure it was the new model that ford has put out
and i want the wheels it has.

does anyone know where i can buy them from and how much they are

i would prefer if they came off the back of a truck as my wage as a pizza delivery driver
along with my outside of work fun does not leave much for my car

Hahaha, f**k i lol'd.

But seriuosly on a pizza wage, you can probably forget the 19's, unless you follow a wheel truck for a while hoping the doors fly open.

Am I reading this right, your looking for stolen wheels potentially?

If so your lowest form of scum, go shoot yourself. :twisted:

Secondlly if you want nice things, either learn how to control your money and stop blowing it, or get a better paying job, and i wouldn't deliver pizza's on 19's :lol:

Genuine ford rims are probably more expensive than any set of chrome rims. If I remember correctly, Typhoon 18's are worth about 3 or 4 grand?

CHILL PILL MAN, he is just stating that that his job pay is c r a p house and he cant really afford it, ya never know they might get sus on you if you follow the truck too long :P, pretty sure the doors are made not to come undone so easy.

Any ways ive got the goods check these guys out i saw there add ina street fords mag, there not off the truck but there what you want start saving 8-) i think these are the ones????

http://www.wheelking.com.au/Wheels/tabi ... fault.aspx

if not theres an entire site of rims from 16" to 19" genuine and up to 20" aftermarket

dont think they will be the right offset for your el? but

wish they had bigger range of xf to el rims

18" typhoon wheels (also available cobra's and gt's) $799, plus $480 for a set of tyres plus delivery..

= roughly $1420 with a wheel alignment..
