Hey, i saw on that transformers badge thread that you were looking for a black ford badge, not sure if they will fit but if they do they might be just what your looking for. Bit pricey tho

Reallly neeed some new wheeeeeels. I'm so sick of these FTR's and the baldness of the rear tyres.
My thinking is, why spend money on new tyres, when I can wait for someone to sell a set of wheels and tyres



Because the bald tyres are a safety issue to yourself and everyone else around you maybe?

+1
REW9EN even if you just chuck cheap tyres on and keep saving for bigger wheels because as EVL just said, bald tyres aren't safe!
Especially in the rain... :roll:

I've got stockies on atm, as my wheel arch was also cutting into the exterior of the wheels.
I need to roll them, get the lowered suspension off DC_Todd and find some new wheels.

But that is after I fix my front pulley seal leak, get new windscreen wipers, repair broken outer boot and machine discs/get new pads.

I've got my work cut out for me... Luckily I can get everything at trade price.


Cheers,

I recently replaced mine with rda slotted and dimpled rotors . They are zinc coated so they won't rust . Except where the pad contacts the rotor but as soon as you break the rust is gone .
Also replace your wheel bearings as well . And pads .

stupidly ive driven a car with bald rear tyres a few years ago, and ive also driven my car with brand new triangle brand tyres on it, my bald tyres started life as a really expensive grippy tyre, and the cheap brand new tyres were actually worse than my expensive completly bald tyres when driving, altho if you do crash with brand new cheap tyres you wont get in as much s**t as driving with bald tyres
