I agree, I like to be different. I wanted to get some BBS RS-GT's but I dont want to spend $900 a wheel. I couldn't beat the price. $500 for all four wheels and thats including shipped to my house. I needed to get new tires anyways so, why not get new wheels in the process. I got the gunmetal because I want it to be different and not to be flashy. Eventually I will get some BBS or Iforged wheels or something real nice. With the forked design that BBS is famous for. I want to get the griggs racing suspension kit. So that will allow for more width up front. So after all that I will consider getting new wheels. But for now I love them. Thanks for all the responses, I am suprised most people like them. Also they look alot better in person!!

I love the look. But, you've overpaid for the tires. They have some great deals on eBay, for the wheels and tires your size for about $1200, mounted and balanced. But, you got what you wanted, doesn't matter if it cost you a little more, enjoy them. Now you need cobra R spoiler and hood, then maybe a blower.


What kind of front bumper is that?

I saw they had the wheels with tires mounted but they are Hankook tires. They are 275/40 for the rear and 245/45 for the front. Alot smaller and lesser quality tire than what I bought.

I did look for the goodyear f1 tires on ebay, I couldnt find the size I was looking for. Plus I bought my last tires from tirerack and I was very pleased with them, so thats why I ordered the tires from them again.

I do like the cobra R spoiler sometimes and then other times not. I am debating between the saleen 281 or 351 wing.... And the stalker wing, and mabye even the wing off of the 05 3d carbon mustang. Thats my favorite. Or yes mabye the cobra R wing. I am mostly into functionality first and looks second.

I have a saleen urethane front bumber. I bought it from saleen and I would recommend not to buy from saleen. I recieved a horrible product.

Also I am looking for a used cobra engine off of ebay, I want to have a twin turbo 4 valve.

Hey 03twistedstang by the way.... I am enlisted in the air force. I am leaving January 17th for basic training. I hope you have nothign but good things to say about the Air Force.

You looking in the wrong places on eBay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/AFS-9...QQcmdZViewItem


Steeda wing looks real nice on a mustang, I saw it from behind on the highway. As far as functionality, Cobra R wing is the most functional.

Oh I see that. But I dont like those rims and the tires arent the best choice. The tires are someof the most important thing to buy for your car. Thats the only that is in contact with the ground. So its worth it in my eyes to get the best tires I can buy. Also different companys make different size of the same size tire, like those Sumitomo's are alot smaller than goodyears 315's. Here is a link to prove it...

Thats exactly what my car looks like but with different rims...

I bought my wheels off of ebay from a company called O.E distributiors. They are located in florida. It looks like the company took the wheel and painted it, they just didnt paint totally in the bolt holes. But other than that the quality is excellent! Besides you can't see that unless your looking past the lugs. It doesnt bother me. They are also just as light as the real cobra R's. The 17x9 weights 25lbs. and the 17x10.5 weights 28lbs. Also cheaper than any other cobra r's I have seen. $369 was just the price of the wheels. the rest was shipping costs. they also came with 20 lugs nuts, and 4 valve stems and 4 cobra center caps.

Fat, sticky tires in the rear are the best thing you can do for a Stang visually, IMHO. Now delete your spoiler and take some pics that give us a better perspective of the wheels!
