Check out these rims for me...
need a new pair of summer rims, retiring the stock bullits for winter use. found these on ebay -
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT
they were considerably cheaper than a lot of the other ones i looked at, i almost thought there might be something wrong with them. what does everything think? i have a white 01 gt, if it matters.
just looking to get some opinions before i drop the dough on them... almost cant pass them up because of the price, and they look great to me.

It's going to come out around $430 for everything which is a fairly decent price, probably not the best quality though. If you like them well enough to spend that much get them or you could get ones from mustangtuning.com for like $50-100 more.

Do you have any arguments to back up this logic? Or is it complete randomness???

Ummmm do you plan on buying new tires soon? Those are 17x9, and I believe your stock size is 17x8

i thought stock size was 17x9, no? maybe i just messed it up.which ones i am looking at from mustang tuning for $50-100 more? the same wheels? my only beef with MT.com is their response time to emails. i had to wait a week and emails to two different departments for a response because they sent me the wrong part. that didnt sit well. they remedied the situation however.

RE: Check out these rims for me...
I've ordered from them 4 times... not once has anything been in stock. Only once did i recieve an email saying that the items are not in stock.
That time... i ordered o2 extensions. Well i planned ahead and ordered A MONTH before I would be doing my long tube install. I got the email saying they would be in next week, so I was like cool ill have them about a week before I do the install. Nope, I called them and said they still arent in stock and should have got an email (the standard bull **** they serve you). Well I didnt get them even though I ordered a month earlier. I had to drive 3ish hours to summit and 3ish hours back to beable to complete the long tube install so I would have my car ready by the time i went back to school.
List of things I never recieved from them: SLP Catback, steeda triax, catted prochamber, o2 extensions.
^^ All seperate orders.
They can burn in hell, there business practices suck. LMPerformance is MUCH better.

RE: Check out these rims for me...
I have ordered 5 things from them and all showed up just when they were supposed to. It is probably just because they are a smaller company they can't afford to stock a lot of everything. I have never had any problem with them, but I usually just go for what has the best deals on what I am looking for.

yeah, i am getting new tires, hence getting the new rims i thought stock size was 17x9, no? maybe i just messed it up.
which ones i am looking at from mustang tuning for $50-100 more? the same wheels? my only beef with MT.com is their response time to emails. i had to wait a week and emails to two different departments for a response because they sent me the wrong part. that didnt sit well. they remedied the situation however.
