How much are tires going to run me.. To say fit 18' Wheels?

dont get the chrome saleens. Every1 has chrome saleens or cobra replicas. Go with black deep dish fr500s. 18x9 and 18x10. The polished lip will be a good contrast in between the white and the black. Plus your hood scoop is already black. It would look awesome on there.

he already said he didn't want deep dish.

personally i don't like the look of black wheels on a white car. i agree with jonbeast that the saleens are the best looking wheels for the mustang.......and i also agree with matt that they are so popular that a lot of people have them. if you want something different get

gunmetal saleen


black chrome mach 1


white saleen wheel(my personal favorite)


as for the hood i know the grill is part of that horrible hood but believe it or not it looks kind of sweet with a regular hood and no bumper posts on the inside of the headlights. try putting a normal hood on it and see if you like it. but even if it means getting rid of the front bumper still get rid of that hood.......you're right you'll never see another like it and there is a reason for that.......because it looks ridiculous.

wheels are obvioulsy going to cost you far more than 75 bucks......but save your money for a while. mustang tuning is having a sale.....the white 18X9 are only $150 with free shipping. so for 600 bucks you can have all 4 wheels.......and the tires'll probably run you approx 600 more.

Well I was planning on putting a full exhaust system on my car which would run me right at about $1200. I want to do looks + sound, because Im obsessed with sound, but If I could do the wheels first I definitely would.

So based on your estimate I could get wheels + tires for about $1200 give or take. Even if its 1-2 hundred more, I could wait I guess.
But I was just speculating that wheels + tires would cost well over $2K.

So you think this would be possible at around $1200 or so?

And just the thing about the hood. I really don't want to start messing with the bumber and things.. I do like the bumber a lot. I understand where you guys are coming from with the hood. If I changed it, the only hood I would consider would be Mach 2 because I love that hood. But I don't know what would happen with that huge opening from the type-s hood...

yea u can do all that for 1200 or so give or take a few hundred if u do it right.... if u got rid of that hood and put on the mach 2... which i do suggest... would look a lot better IMO....... it would look like a normal sn95 in the apsect that the grille would be open now... not covered by ur hood.... thats about it...

so yea look into a new hood and new rims.... ide also say a new front bumper cuz i dont like it... but thats one thing u said ur not changing... so ill settle for a chnage in ur hood...

good luck.. and let us know what u decide
