Question Opinions?
Hey everyone,

I own a Falcon BA Futura mk ii in colour zest, which is a kinda light green if people are unsure. (il post a picture below)
I am currently struggling in regards to finding a decent looking set of wheels for it as it still has the stock alloys on it.
I am mostly looking for the rims with black finish and silver outlining or the gun metal greyish colour.
Just wondering if people wanted to help me out to try and find a perfect pair.

Thanks heaps,

Try this. I don't know why, but it keeps coming up with a wagon, but it should give you an idea of what's available.

Yer i was mostly looking at the darkagent wheels but im now tending to drift away from the fpv and other ford manufactured wheels because they are way to expensive for me haha.

I am mostly looking for somethin around 1000 for wheels and tyres which really restricts my choices.

You can get FPV copies for around that price if you don't mind having copies

Also mate,

Ask for their best price.. I won't throw figures around but I am certainly glad I did.
