Question about Wheels

Network_Gremlin · 10-26-2004, 01:36 PM

I was considering purchasing 4 of the following wheels for my 2000 Mustang GT, but I am not sure if I should go with 4 Deep Dish, or just go Deep in the Rear?

Any takes on this, and/or will the Deep wheels be a problem in the front?

I would say just go with the deep ones in the rear...I have heard of 9 inch wheels in front (stock Roush, Cobra, Saleen)...but not 10.5! They WILL rub on hard cornering

Dont think deep dish in the front will look right, you want the back to look wider than the front wheels. If they all look the same it will look like those lowriders with the gold wire wheels.

Thanks for the info, and was looking through some other threads, and saw a picture of one with the wheels I want to get except the ones I want are Chrome.

I can see your point...and that is the last look I want...me being hispanic would not help either...

The time honored fast car look is wider and deeper in the back of the car, ALWAYS!

Ditto!

That thing will drive like crap too with tires too wide up front.

Ditto to what the others have said. What color is your car btw? If you put some big meats on in the back, your car look very aggressive.

Dark Emerald Green, with Black Int w/ Dark Black Tint all around...except the front.

Looking around to see what kind of mods are out there...but I was also looking into some body kits. I want to make it look good outside as well as I want it to perform on the inside.

Haven't started to get things for her yet, but I figured the Wheels, and new Springs/struts to start perhaps some suspension work as well.

If you are looking for a new hood, I suggest the Steeda Cobra R hood. I have one that came off my 2001. The quality is top notch on it. Only if I can afford to have it painted again.

One of my favorite sayings... "Go deep in the rear"
