jamie247 542 Posted June 20, 2013 yeah have seen them ventini's but they only come 19'' up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slydog 7,873 Posted June 20, 2013 I know it's your car and wants but 19 is right after 18...I run 19" Drift R's on my XF Ghia and love the look of em but they came of a XE which they looked even better on. Surely the tyre sourcing is easier for 19's now days then 18's too? If I went 15-6"it would be old school Welds or such and new would be a modern 5 spoke. Just seem to work well for me,either way good luck with your choice bro and keep us posted ay. 2 revhead and mcfly94 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamie247 542 Posted June 21, 2013 oh so 19'' don't scrub what size tryes you got bud sounds good now cause I love em Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slydog 7,873 Posted June 21, 2013 19x8 fronts and 19x9.5 rears both on 245x35 rubber bands.I like the balloon look on the rear and the off set cos it makes it look like a FAT wheel/tyre combo and sort of tubbed a bit while all on stock suspension. Glad I helped some what bro... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve mcqueen 1,796 Posted June 21, 2013 Im thinking "just buy some nice wheels in the size you want and get the centres painted in the gold". Heaps of second hand alloy wheels on evil bay would come up a treat with a bit of TLC and some paint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hendrixhc 10,921 Posted June 21, 2013 I got the Vendetta V10 Hypers on my XE (refer my project thread round page 20 for a pic). They are 17 x7.5. They are not deep dished at all but the centers could be painted gold if you wanted gold. They were $190 about 18 months ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JETFTR 508 Posted June 21, 2013 I still love those wheels rob! I had a small issue on my xe when I had them, they caught ever so slightly in the front of the front guards. Small amount of massage and all good. Gold vertini drifts look great, and come in staggered widths like rob's roh 19's. 1 agentkiwi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slydog 7,873 Posted June 21, 2013 I reckon the new style Welds will make there way on to the ute...I always dug the Rod Lites but the new ones look sik as cuz...I'll be too late to get some Magnums and by then they will be like old convo's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamie247 542 Posted June 21, 2013 I like the speedy cheetahs in gold but they don't fit so i'll sort something out as i'm painting it jade green with black instead of chrome moulds I think gold rims would look shit hot i'll sort it out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
