howdy all,i have been looking for quite a few days now, trying to find these rims in 18".

i want the replica ones that have the e series off set. i know you can get them in 17", and i have been told we can get them in 18". but i'm having troubles finding them.

if anyone knows where i could find them, it would be appreciated.

dont care where they are, i just want them. i'll ship them from the moon if i have to...:lol:

Tried Bob Jane T-Marts, they tried selling me some last time I was there, but I'm not into factory wheels, too common...

There's a ebay shop that sells them for $795 for a set of 4 in 17 and 18inch. Can't think of the name. Use to stare at them long and hard thinking should I, shouldn't I. Never had the money tho :(

here's a link for a set of 17's. But you can just go to their store from there (Wheels Direct) and keep an eye out for 18's when they show up.

right, i have found the wheels :)

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/C-FORD-BA-XR8-OP ... dZViewItem

BUT..... it will be $1700 delivered, which i am not overly concerned about.

but question is, what are the tyres like that come with it

Brand: Silverstone

Model: Evol8

Size: 235/40R18

Load Rating: 91Y

Overall Diameter: 645mm


just wondering what these tyres are like. havent heard a great deal about them, is there a reason for that?

Did you make sure those ones are pre AU off set like the 17's? I suppose with paying the extra $100 they would be. But you never know if they sent the right ones you requested... :)

point taken, but there arent that many rims out there that i like that will fit e series. and i reckon these are a nice rim.

please if u have any other suggestions, please put foward. i have been loking for a while, and just havent sen anything that i like.

and now for the next question, whats the diff between these 2 packages?

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/FORD-ALLOYS-BA-X ... dZViewItem

and

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/FORD-BA-XR8-OPTI ... dZViewItem

cant see any diff. both are e series offset, both 18 inch, both have same tyres.

anyone?? and still want some feedback on those tyres.
