Walmart mounts and balances tires for 40-50 bucks ... order your set of 18's .. you can get a set of replicas for around 600-700 shipped and tires for about 400-425 off ebay .. just look around and don't buy until you find a deal ... it takes more time but def. worth it .. but power is for yourself .. always make it look and sound good .. then go for the motor .. get the get .. then the wheels .. then start messing with the motor .. you'llbe much happier showing off something that looks good as a daily driver ..
I would never trust Walmart with ANY component that would come near my car, let alone have them touch my wheels

Where the hell are you going to find 18" tires for $400?

I'm going to be getting 18s this summer....I just don't know what wheels to get?[]

You said you have seen a lot of aftermarket wheels for stangs that you like? Show me!

Yeah, actually i did see some wheels on ebay fro 400-425, but if you notice, the shipping is 80-90 bucks PER wheel. So actually in the end it still comes out to about 750-800 bucks. I planned on getting my wheels from stangmods.com or americanmuscle.com. The bullits were like 600 SHIPPED!

I heard it's basically the same thing to get my existing heads P&P instead of buying some new ones. And alot cheaper. True or false?

You know that the kit probably doesn't come painted right? Could be alot of expense there.

Whatever you do, GET some gears along with all the other stuff.

craigslist wheels (no shipping) usually cheap with good tires, and gears, or other mods FTW
