Too good of a deal to pass up

Well, yesterday I sold my saleen rim/tire setup. I was planning on getting my meth kit with it, but the guy buying the setup asked what i was planning on doing as my new setup. I told him i wanted to go with pro stars bigs/skinnies. He told me about a guy that had a rear rim/tire setup for sale, that was a steal. man, he wasnt kidding. Here is what i bought this evening:
The rims are 15x9 (yes 9, they are custom made...the 8's are too small and sit inside the fender, so the guy got them custom made to 9") with a 5.5 backspace. The tires are 275/60/15 MT ET Street Radials. THIS RIM/TIRE SETUP HAS 30 MILES ON IT. Yep, 30 miles. The guy even threw in lugs/center caps with the buy. I got this all for $500. He had $1100 for this custom setup. Now I just gotta work on getting the skinnies up front: (sorry, these were taken with my cell phone in my garage at 10:00 at night) Attachment 16655 Attachment 16656 Attachment 16657 Attachment 16658 Attachment 16659 Attachment 16660 |
im sure they are nice but it's kinda hard to tell. cant wait to see them on the car in the light
|
+1 ^^
|
yeah, sorry for the crappy pictures. They really are mint. You wont see them on the car until the spring time. Right now my whole motor is ripped apart and i already took my car off of insurance for the winter.
|
are you going strip only from now on?
|
Those are gonna look awesome on the car.
|
Are those for racing?
|
eh, i wouldnt say its only for racing or strictly strip....i only put about 4-5k miles a year on this car....it only gets driven to car shows, occasional weekend cruises, and i want to start running her at the track.
|

I was looking through the market over at svtperformance after I read this thread and saw this ad.

awesome! thanks for the link man!
|
alll you need now is some 3" studs...im only getting the studs so i wont get kicked off the track. Also looks like you have a 28" tire which should be perfect for your AODE and 4.10's...if you had 26" tire you would bounce the limiter at 108-109 at 6k rpms. Remember your cars braking is gonna suck when the skinnies go up front.
|
yeah, i may go with 3" studs. we will see. thats the reason i went with the 28" tall tire because of my current setup. yeah, ive heard braking will really suck. thanks for the heads up

Don't you love how modding is really a never ending process? I have dumped so much money into my car and I still need to do some suspension mods and build the rear end...Nice car man it has come a long ways...very tastefully modded.
|
Wow! I wouldn't mess with either one of your cars! But I really wouldn't pick on your stang now haha.
|
daaamnn:suck:
|
hahaha thanks guys! yeah, your telling me about cars being a money pit. I have a little over 35k into my car, plus the car was 8k and i havent even built the motor, rear, or done any paint work besides the hood.
|
where'd the 35k go?:confused:
|
pretty much everything besides a forged internals, forged rear, or any crazy body work lol
