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.

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

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 Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
