Your best bet is Ebay mate, but that depends, I know AU's can have BA wheels but I don't know if they can sport a set of BF's. And BA and BF typhoon rims are very different I do believe.

You can ask FTG if they have any.

They would look AUsome in my opinion, but I think the rears are some kind of different offset.

AU, BA & BF all the same only difference is between sedans and utes where the sedan have the bigger offset on the back. Utes normally run all front offset Not a very good pic but heres one of a 19" typhoon rim on the back of a ute
I can run the sedan rear offset on the back because guard lips have been rolled

The back wheel looks dodgy as I know but I couldnt find a decent angle. The front looks pretty good though

I'm finding it hard to find wheels to suit my two tone Fairlane. I've always thought the Typhoon wheels might be the way to go.

Just get a set of 19" rims in a similar style to the Phoon rims and get the spokes painted or or powdercoated. Will look just as good
