| first off i would like 20's but i don't want to buy tires for them really.
also the car will be getting lower..just springs...Eibach Sportlines i imagine...with 18's i will still have wheel gap probably but i still want the car to be practical as well....its only summer driven anyways
i like those 2 piece rims but at $309 USD a piece they are wayy to much...black chrome FR500s are like $180 a piece for 18's
any other opinions? so far it looks like 18x10 and 18x9 DD black chrome FR500's...Nitto iNvo tires(255/45/18 fronts and 295/40/18 rears)
also which pair of vaughns rims? the ones on his S197 or his 2010? plus he uses multiple ones so which set you talking about?
and i will NOT get chrome rims...unless i found a super good deal on a set of chrome FR500's becuase Chrome+Mineral Gray=Fail. any other insight?
thanks guys Dustin | |

| I don't know, I don't know much about mustangs or how you guys roll but 18's for 180 seems a little odd. Is it just me?
I know hotwheels makes those 5 spoke 18's that the mustang guys all love and they come in good offsets, I believe. | |

| yes, I guess I was getting at cheap. I think you pay for what you get. However, Nissan guys put a lot of importance on wheels... so you know where I stand. I guess as long as the wheels don't pull a rota on you and fit decently then you will be ok. | |

well they defiantly aren't no 8lb volks but i am not paying for that either and this is a mustang which is a boat anyways haha. but lots of guys on mustang forums have ordered replicas from www.americanmuscle.comwww.cruizinconcepts.comwww.oewheels.cometc which all sell replicas and i have never heard of anyone complaining so i am assuming they are pretty decent. | |

| Adam Let's be honest your sense of K. BLock wouldn't let you either. DuggyV I just don't know anything about Domestics and what they do... Maybe you should get some Foose wheels, he seems nice. If not I'll just think of Jegs. | |

yes you guys do, i was afraid to buy anything that wasn't work or volk/rays yeah I wanted the Rota P45rs in Black with the red lip, but when I heard from the parts manager at Ford that he had sold a set and the spokes seperated from the hub when a customer was driving round a corner it made me reconsider!!! Would look hot though!!! | |
