10.5 rim? HELP? RIM ENTHUSIASTS input please
I am having an issue here. I am currently running a chrome saleen 18x9 package.
SHOULD I BE UPGRADING to an 18x10 wheel in the rear? what are the pros/cons of this?
I will have a h&r supersport drop on the stang.
I WOULD PREFER AN ALL BLACK RIM.. now., after I went chrome.
I cannot FIND any all black fr500's, do they exist??
I cannot find any all black BBK rks? whereee???
Should I spend the money and go with an all black setup with a fatter rear rim size?
Or spend the money else where.
I am only spending about 700~$ for the 4.

well I am not straight up calling it BS, it is just more about the tire size/type of tire. And as far as wheels go I always use ebay. I have always had great success when dealing with the bigger companies on there (good $, fast ship, as described, etc.)

Just don't buy from MOOREXXX on Ebay. He sells OE Wheels. JUNK! And his tire/wheel packages are a joke. They wouldn't balance properly. Vibrated like crazy above 50mph.( I bought my own tires BF G's from TireRack) He sells a 10.5" rim and puts a 285 width rubber on it. Looks stetched out! Looks ridiculous and doen't belong on there. Get some AFS wheels if you buy from Ebay.
A 10.5" rim is so you can fit 305 and 315's properly. If you don't want that wide of a tire, than stick with 275's on 18x9's all way around so you can rotate them. You cannot rotate 10.5" up front. They don't fit.
