They actually look really good. I had my doubts about these wheels on AUs but that's come up really well.

Have they got the white inserts or the silver? Kind of hard to tell in the pics if there's white there or just the light hitting the sides of the spokes differently.

yeah nice ute dude, nice choice of wheel, I looked at those wheels myself but then opted to go the 19" F6 dark argent for my white sedan.

keep up the good work...

PS would look stunning with a Pursuit ute bodykit..

Little 8" unless I'm mistaken :
Like to have 8.5" front and importantly 9.5" rears then they would look even hotter ! :

Oh by the way the ute looks very nice !

Give us a side on pic and one low from the rear to see how they look, same for you mattp.

thanks guys really appriciate the comments. Would love a pursuit ute bodykit would look awesome on it, but yeh would love alot of other things for it to just dont have the cash. dont get paid much as a 3rd year apprentice desiel mechanic.
These are 8'' wide not sure what other sizes pretty sure its just that in the 18s
will get more pics when she is clean and the weather is better!
