07-03-10, 20:26 GMT+10#63 They don't look to bad really. To chunky in the middle but then again we are all used to the way FRs used to look.

07-03-10, 21:16 GMT+10#64 to me they look the same, except the centre, on the originals the studs are more curved and go in deeper, if you get what i mean

10-03-10, 19:01 GMT+10#74 look this is the deal when iw as in sydney 2 weeks ago i went to tempe to speak to sam about these, the "new" centres are machined instead of cast like the originals as every knows
Now we had a original and a new one side by side and u can tell a slight differance BUT sam said by the time they go on sale that this will be fixed up and you won't be able to tell the differance, which i beleive he took nearly 2 hrs out of his day on a super busy saturday morning
here is the pics, as u can tell they are completely different to the ones posted above, u yes u can get them in 19s 20s and 22s
