Hey guys,

Been readings these forums and learning sum things about
my 95 EF fairmont. Anyway it seems like most of you have good taste
and i was wondering what rims you think wuld look nice i am looking
for ford (or tickford or FPV) rims to keep with an original sort of look, and
i am planning to get the XR bodykit ( minus spoiler)
Any suggestions would be helpful because there is too many choices out there.......

Ive attached sum pics of my car in my gallery

Goldy17, its not the FPV/Ford original look you're pry chasing but I reckon with the E-series you might as well make the most of the offset and try for something with a good sized rim. Check out my gallery...the wheels are ROH Modena's...the back rims have a 4" lip....pry not everyone's cup of tea but they do it for me :)

i think the fake el gts in silver look pretty good on the e series. or the au2 tickford replicas. but everyone seems to have those

damn u keep ur car clean.......i wish i had the time to keep mine clean.

anyways i have 17" AMG Quakes......they look good but have to be low or else they always look funny. have a look around to see what rims fit what.

and i think the original FPV ones dont fit E series. off set is different. but u can always go for hub adapers. personally i wouldnt cause it might be illegal

phong =P~

Until you get your bodykit mate, I'd just go with the standard EF monty wheels. They look clean enough. And its not as if you have to have big wheels to be able to drive the car. By the time you can afford your body kit, you will have a pretty good idea of what wheels you like. BTW, Nice looking car since you got it lowered :)

Thats a great looking Monty mate, i think that coulor really suit the model.
Rims? I guess a lot of rims really would suit it, check out some tyre shop websites for an idea
