Hi all i'm thinking of putting a set of Ford factory 16" alloys on my ute when it arrives. I like the AU XLS option alloys or even the BA XLS option alloys.
What sort of price have people seen them for or would be fair to expect to pay ? Being a company ute i need to stick to 16" only. Thanks Alan. |

Genuine artical
$1500 Knockoff's $950 w/tyres 16-17's are about identical on price when purchasing the rims... but cheep tyres for 17's are only like 135$.... the 17's on my car have been there for 45,000 and still have 35% tread left... and they were CHEEP

BA XLS 16" rims were the best looking 16" available in my opinion.
try www.wheelking.com.au and see if they do sell them. Otherwise Ford sell them still AFAIK ... but at a premium. Try eBay as well ... or the For Sale section on this forum to see if anyone is selling some. Is the ute you are getting a 1-tonne setup ... if it is you will need to get the 1-tonne rated ute 16" alloys anyway ... so the AU 16" 5-spoke alloys are out (AFAIK they aren't 1-tonne rated) ... so it will be BA-onwards in wheel choice.

BA XLS rims can be bought off ford for a complete set for less then $1000 if you shop the parts man hard.
I like the new BF XL SE wheels / XR tray back ones, they are a nice rim to and would suit the model as they are designed for BF, they look fresh.
