I have an opportunity to get a set of 18" BF XR8 wheels and tyres for about $1600.00, I would like an opinion as to whether they would look good on my Lucifa. All I have as a pic for the wheels is a Blue BF ute.

Would look good, but a bit pricy IMO... even with brand new tyres...

Sorry guys, I should have added that $1600.00 is for a set of NEW wheels and tyres.
Thanks for the opinions though, I just needed a littl epush I suppose to spoil Lucifa |

Not an XR, but it'll give you an idea.
Also, these are for sale in the "for sale" section of the site. Only problem is that they are in melb. Cheers

yeah they'd look good... but just note i only paid $1400 for a new set of 18" BF Cobras (Copies) with Nexen N3000 Tires (Pretty Good Tires) so it does seem bit pricey... check out the link to the AU in my sign for pics
