Hey Jeff, what did you do with the saleen wheels? If i can sell my cobra r's for however much you want for the saleens can we do it. I also want to paint my calipers red like yours too. Looks great by the way!

It looks nice but I liked the Saleens better. Maybe you can get some better pictures and change my mind. ;-)

I think they are awsome! Chrome wheels have been around forever, and though we all know they look good, its great to see a combination that WORKS without chrome. Your black on white with tint looks amazing. And I agree that the pics dont do the car justice.

Damn that is clean. I'm becoming more and more fond of black wheels these days. Do you have hyperwhite fog light bulbs?

I'd say you need some wider tires on those wheels. Give it a little buldge to look mean.

Clean car as always Pottsy...

what centercaps are you using btw?

The ones that came with the wheels for now, until I can find some SVT ones...

DKS2814V--the foglights are stock, the bulbs are just regular sylvanias...but they are really bright for some reason. I definitely think wider rear tires are in order, those are just 285's on there now. It will happen in time...thanks for the compliments guys.

i was looking to get the same combo, but the price of 18 inch tires turned me away

do you mind me asking how much you spent on the rims and tires?

looks great by the way :thumbsup:

The wheels were $650 shipped and the tires were a little more than that.

They are just a hair under 2 1/2". What kind of tires did you buy? Also...let me know if the centercaps fit, I want to put the SVT ones in mine as well...

Do you think that the spinner center caps from the 05 mustang 6banger would fit on the fr500's? I think that would look sick to have the spinners on them in crome on top of the black rim?

That would be something different and I'm always down to try out a new look, but I have no idea what the dimensions of those are...I swear that I've seen a pic of those spinners on what looked to be Bullitt wheels though...?

Yeah, I have seen the same. They have to fit go to ford and see if they will let you try one. If they fit That is what I am going to do on my car.
