I reckon the BF XR 17's would look alright on an AU if it had a kit, cos theyre a chunky looking wheel.

The BF 18's - I'd put them on my ute if i could find some....

Mate that looks awesome. Im just not sure if it would look as chunky on an XR as they dont seem to be a solid (not sure if thats the right word)

Get 5 spoke Tickfords austin they will look heaps better although the BF 18's would be nice the tickford centre caps dont fit im pretty sure, well AU centre caps dont fit in any BA wheel

You'll need 2 pairs to make the car driveable :

Both styles look very good indeed!

Still prefer the Tickford 17's though. MMMMMMM Tickford 17's! LOL!
