Default GT500 "Take-off" wheels and tires

Anyone bought a set of these from this site? Sounds like they are coming out of SAI during the KR conversion. Seems like a very good price.

wish I could offer some feed back, but I've never bought from them.

it appears to be a great deal. I know this sounds absurd, but if you do decide to order them, I would call the ensure the overall condition of them so there are no surprises of what you will be receiving (since they are coming off of GT500's make sure they aren't used, slightly marked up, etc.)

I would be interested to hear about your experience if you do go with them.

$1250 for new wheels and tires isnt bad at all.

Im almost tempted just as a spare set to the 20's. I could only run these as my stocks wont fit due to the Brembo upgrade.

I'd keep looking, on some of the other Mustang forums they have been going for as low as $600 a set.

1) I bought mufflers from the place with no problems. They weren't take-off's though.

2) Why are the front & rear tires different sizes? The wheel sizes are the same.

They are a staggered size on the GT500. Same wheel, wider tire in the back.
