I am looking at possibly getting some new rims for the Bulldog .... So my KMC Stealth's will be for sale for CHEAP ...

I am wanting to go with something that not many or no people have on their cars ... rims are what make a car unique and I dont want to be like everyone else and throw some Cobra Replicas or Saleen Wheels on my car ....

Please help me decide with the Following ....

# 1 BLACK GTR REPLICA 18X9

# 2 GREY GTR REPLICA 18X9

# 3 GREY LIQUID METAL - STATIC 18X9.5

#8 def would look sweet on a mustang

01-15-2007, 02:13 PM
i like the regular chrome over the black chrome, so #7 look REALLY good, but if you want more of a unique look, i would lean more towards 8.

a 9.5 inch rim what do you plan on running 345/30/18 drag radial or just plain slicks?

I like 4, 5, 7, 8 in that order

he can fit ant where from a 295 to a 315 on it comfortably, a 335 would be pushing it a little

The rims that I have leak air and I dont know why. Plus the chrome is chipping or pealing in a spot and you know how particular i am about the little things .... it drives me nuts ...

Leedog... no pics viewable ...

Carlton ... what is the 4th pic down ??? I kinda like that one too ...

as for going with Cobra's, Saleens, Bullitts, etc ... I DO NOT want to be like everyone else !!!!!! Thousands of Mustang owners put the same ol' shit on their cars !!!! I DO NOT want to be like everyone else ... I aint no follower .. I want my car to be unique and have snap!!!!

For those that said none of the above .. What would you recommend or what do you think would look good??? And dont tell me Saleens, Cobra's or Bullitts either cause those are out...

the SSR's and the TSW's...
the TSW is the cleanest of all of those wheels, they are TUV approved and they have that lip!!!

So stop being lazy, and search for the names that I posted. See www.tirerack.com (http://www.tirerack.com) for photos. I can see them on my puter.
also try http://www.wheelenvizio.com/?wheel=Envizio they only have select wheels, but you can see them on the stang.

Thanks guys ... It looks like the TSW's or the drifters ... those seem to be the most popular 2 on here and on another board ...

Maybe you should keep the money in your pocket instead of buying rims, you should buy some more go fast goodies.

Thing is, is that I have bought most of the goodies I can .. I still need to finish my suspension including, shocks/springs/K-Member/A-Arms/and all the other pieces that go with em ($2000 or so), get the Heads P&P'd with new cams that will take a Blower ($2000) and finally the Blower ($5000 w/intercooler) and then of coarse all the tunes I will have to get between now and then ...

I want to have an 11 Sec ALL MOTOR Mustang before I go with a S/C .. Can you think of any other 11 Sec GT's running all motor ??????? I cant ..... :):):)

SO now all of my go fast goodies are EXPENSIVE!!!!!!!!

I Found some other rims that I think that I am going to get ...
