Hey, i recently brought my first car and it came with some little rims that i would like to change. I would like to know how much for the Rims that "jeremymarsh" has and where do i get them from?

I think the rims are from a 1995 ford falcon XR6 but not to sure!

Any help would be great (i live in perth)

Thanks

hes got the stock 16" el xr wheels. they are known as FTR's and are very common. they often pop up on here, otherwise you can try ebay. they normally go for anywhere between 500-700 depending on condition and if they're genuine ones.

you can get copies which ANZ made in 16" and 17" which are almost exactly the same. but IMHO the genuine ones look heaps better

um jeremymarsh, has no picks, only the tiny avatar pic.

i assume your wanting a set of ftr's? 16" el xr wheels?

good luck finding good originals, although copys are available, but they are a champagne-ish colour.

p.s. ftr's are the ones in my sig.

The tyre factory should be able to help you out with non genuine copies but will be more expensive as they are new.

there the same ones on the back of my AU, EL XR rims, they sell them at Ian Diffen Tyre Factory, there not cheap either.

as rushed said, good luck finding originals, the ones on the back of mine are originals but alot of other companies make copies which will be cheaper...
