Dana, looks great but with that suspension, I am dissappointed that you didn't get 345's to really set it off. Those rims aren't it either ![[Wink]](wink.gif) [ September 13, 2007, 11:16 PM: Message edited by: Luke87GT ]

I've spent a lot
I am looking at Drag radials right now and how come 305x18 nittos are .30 inch bigger than the 315x17 nittos? [ September 14, 2007, 12:57 AM: Message edited by: 532Fastback ]

Ya 555r's tend to run pretty small for some reason. I used to work at a tire place and always noticed how much smaller they were from a different tire that were same size

Dana Looks great and you are for sure doing everything the right way the first time around but shit man. Those Black bullets are gona lower the level of that car so much. You need to get something a little higher level then those. Espcially when your all said and done and all the money your gona put in the thing, your gona go with some knock off DD black bullets? Otherwise that the thing is gona be one mean SOB.

agreed...some nice 3piece or forged deep dish rims would set it off! just don't do any cheap looking rims on there PLEASE...after all the $$$ put into it the car and the nice build the last wheels I would want to see on there is some replica $500 rims. Fiske, forgeline, iforged, HRE, Kenesis etc would be something to look into and it would set off the car very nicely my .02

My dad is trying to convince me to keep the Cobra R wheels and 17s but i already have Cobra wheels on a Mustang of mine. I like the Deep dish black bullits i think they look tight. I don't want to put ricey rims on this car.

Dana, is it for drag/street cruisin'/open track? I would have to agree, after all the work, set the car off. Go a wild on the paint, maybe something better then stock ford color. You like red, well do something that adds life as far as a color. Then seriously, get a nice rim. Not ricey, but a nice clean street machine look.

Nobody is telling you to buy "ricey" rims, watever that means. Just some real quality and real respectable rims would fit the car a lot more considering the type of car your building...here's some ideas: Fikse Forgeline kinesis iForged
