theyre not a factory ford set, but they do look pretty good on an E series.
a wreckers down here did a bulk buy of them a few years ago - i know he has none left as i was going to buy 5 if he had any. i dont go there anymore, but if you cant find out what brand and stuff, i guess i could make a trip there to ask. |

Anyone who remembers THEGRK will know he had the same ones. However I can't seem to find a record of what they actually are.

haha, but you got the 5.0 windsor, and he has, erm a BMW. :( I was trying to think of something funny, but it's hard to bag a Beamer
V8's, I get it, i'm not too young though now. Ash let me drive his the other night, LSD + V8 is awesome, blue and red lights arn't. :hihi: |

almost positive that they wont mate, im pretty sure the hole in the rim is quite large...
that said you might be lucky... if not, go to a rim place and im sure they'll be able to get something for you.... |
