FTO AUSTRALIA

I decided its time for me to move on from my 16inch rims too bigger and nicer rims as much as my enkei "spider" rims suit the fto nicely,

my choices atm are the black rim red lip(phase i think)

theres a couple others im looking at aswell.
im not a fan of full chrome rims on fto's or 1000 spoke or 3 spoke rims.

so too help me with ideas if you have a silver FTO post a picture (:

end of this we can also see whos got the hottest silver FTO

i would not put those last rims on my car even if it was the only way to roll the car... absolutely terrible

all black or gold w/ silver lip

DEFINITELY go the black rims (pic 2), they will suit the silver FTO also

HEY!
Pic 2 are the rims I'm going to get when i pull enough cash!


hehe

I've got the rims in Pic 2 in shadow chrome so they're my pick Photos of my car are in the gallery (http://www.ftoaustralia.com/modules.php ... emId=70883).

I was going to buy the first set for mine a couple of months ago, but some other things came up, you can also get carbon fibre look for those as well.

Yeah, that style looks hot. @OP, the second one in either black or dark grey/gun metal/shadow chrome would be the go. But get at least 18"

thanks HiRAEdd,they suit heaps nice, im gonna see if i can get them in 19's

im looking through St George tyres btw,

Even with 17s, I had tremendous issues with rubbing on the guards but then my car is pretty low. Good luck with it, 19s will look awesome. My thread on tyre sizes is on the forum somewhere.

they give you the worst tyres though

crap grip, wear quickly and one of mine already blew out on the side wall. Only had em for about 6 months or so

oh k thanks for that tippin, ill try n see if i can just buy the rims and get some decent tyres same time ill get it aligned from bob jane, read somewhere on the site they do a sweet job.

oh and if i do have rubbing issue like you HiRAEdd, saw in hot4s theres couple place where they roll the guards in anyone here on the site done this and how much is it around roughly?

not sure if im right to plug...

but i highly recomend Taleb Tyres... i bought my old lensos off them. free tyres (nexens with amazing wet grip), spacers, centre caps, inverted hex nuts - the works. they treat you good.

he said $600 for rims only

i did it myself after seeing quotes.

UAS - $80 a corner
drift garage - $45 a corner from memory
sydney guard roller - $60 a corner

after i did mine i found roastergarage which was something like $20 a corner

these are all inner south or inner west sydney though

If it fits a soap box, it'll do an FTO.
