Now I would say EA wheels on an EF but they are probably EB wheels on an EFII then I would get flamed as I was wrong.
Let you guys decide they are what on what But isn't that mod going backwards? Love his add heading "nice car mate"  : : : : http://cgi.ebay.com.au/nice-car-mate...QQcmdZViewItem

Judging by what engine it has he has gone backwards with that too !
4.1 litre ..  : I also agree, they don't look the part on an EF though no offense to anyone as they dont exactly look crap.

if they were highly polished and the car was dumped it might just pull it off.

But it was confusing at first and if you think wheels sticking out of the guards is impressing then you would love my car. my slotters (front) stick about 2 inches out and the rear about 2-3inches.

i believe that 12 slotters, ea, and impressive should never be used in the same sentence.

yeah im glad you seen it as a joke as it was more of a joke than a payout.. i think that the s pack wheels and the turbo blades are to good looking wheel designs just they need to be bigger

I've seen a fair few EF/ELs with turboblades. I don't mind them so much on a GLi / Futura, because they're far better than stockies (I know I'll be flamed for saying that), but they're just not right on that Fairmont.

There is an EF around the corner with steel XF S pack wheels.
It looks shocking.. IMO I'd never go backward.

Makes the car look alot older than it really is i think, but i spose its up to the owner to choose wheels for his/her car.

Maybe someone should create a ebay thread where, we can all just dump some nice links in of ebay things for sale.!!!lol
Otherwise, the car might be a drifter, and 18"s are too expensive to fry. |
