EL XR8 wheel, sometimes also called EF FTR wheel. 16x7" in diameter.
And good luck finding some, most people like to hang onto them cos theyre so damn good looking, and not many companies make copies anymore. ANZ used to, but they stopped at the beginning of the year.
ford still sell them new, i think $250 a rim though. my mate bought one after an incident with a kerb. couldnt find anyone wanting to sell a single rim.
youll find them at wreckers also, ive seen a few sets go for around $750-$850 with reasonable tyres.
The other Tickford wheel for the EF in 15X7 inch was the double spoke ones, used to have them on my EA (XRATED has them on his car now.) they were standard on all EF XR6/8. the 16"s in the pic were optional on all models at extra cost. The EL's had those 15X7 6 spoke weird things standard, then later on the 16's in the pic were standard on all XR's.
The picture you have shown is of the genuine ford wheel...
The ones referred to as 'EF FTR' are the copies, which have a different centre cap. These were available in 16x7 & 17x8. And were available as a dodgy painted finish, or a dodgy chrome finish.
Hmmm i got a 1996 series 2 EF XR6 but my car came with those wheels? was it a series 2 extra or optioned from factory? although i dont have 4 of them anymore, but i still have one as my spare, its a genuine ford wheel so im guessing the car came with them from the factory.
They were optional on all EF and EL XR 6's and 8's.
they are getting very hard to come by, and if you can find a set of genuine 16x7's you will pay good money for them.
