PostSubject: Re: rims and rubber!   rims and rubber! - Page 2 Icon_minitimeSeptember 15th 2009, 2:09 am

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.

odd as in cheap? the reason they are cheap is they are FR500 Replicas as are the GT4 and the 2010 rims....actual FOMOCO FR500's are $2500 or so a set

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.com
www.cruizinconcepts.com
www.oewheels.com
etc

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. Very Happy

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!!!
