We've sent quite a few sets of wheels to Australia now and love their enthusiasm for American muscle but as far as I know, this is the first set on an AU only model and they look killer! Many thanks to our good friend, Mick Tonna (try saying that name without an Australian accent) for picking out a set of 18 and 19" Rushforth Rated-Xes for his 73 Ford Falcon XB.

Thanks Mick!

Thanks for the compliments, guys! I knew everyone would appreciate seeing something a little different that still fits in our niche.


Sweet wheel choice. I like them with the color. What are the spec's. on the back spacing and the tire sizes.

Thanks! Glad you like them.

The specs are 18x8s with 4.875" backspace and 235/40/18 and 19x10s with 4.875" backspace and 285/35/19s

They fill out those big wheelwells nicely, don't they?

Hey Fellas

Thanks for all the comments on my car. The wheels came out perfectly, and Jason was always helpful and quick to reply with my many many questions about the wheels and the order process. Being from Australia and never seeing a set of Rushforth's in real life, I decided to risk it based on all the praise these wheels got on several forums (including this one).

Can't wait to get to the next show with something that noone else will have, Also the brushed billet finish is something rarely seen over here as all billet wheels most people have are all polished and blingy.

Big thanks to Jason and his wife for all their help!!!
