My camber is just on the edge of being within spec.

Dammit i sure hope not, cause im going with SS's! My strut tower brace covers right where the cc plate would need to be.

Hey Gotti, there is lot of pics on American Muscle.com of cars with different wheel and tire combos.

Bottom line is: Its your car and you can buy and put anything on it you want. None of us are paying for the parts. Do what makes you happy, but dont ask for an opinion because it may not be what you want to hear.

Life Fact #632 Opinions are like assholes, everybodys got one, and it stinks

yeah i know, i went from about to pay 700 for the other rims that where 17x7, to now about to pay 1390, for the rims and tire for the enkei rims 18x9 rims, but to me it seems all worth it, cuz i love the black and chrome on the rims, it just does something to me

GottiDC · 04-17-2008, 10:32 AM

ok so after class today i went and got one of the enkei rims put on 18" and i like them waaaaay better than the other rims i had chosen before, keep in mind i did not buy the rims yet, and the store model that they have there to put on the car was only a 18"x7.5 they have to order the 18x9 for me cuz they didnt have it in the store. and also this is wit out the car being lowerd, i will lower it later. but any way heres how it looked

heres the 7.5 side of the tire, to me its not too bad, but i will still go for the 18x9

and here is the will wit the chrome caps off, and wit out the center peice. oviously it will look better wit the center peice there, i just took the pic when they where taking the wheel off.

they look every very good to me and i will be getting them in may. you guys may not like them but i love them. they dont really take away from the car that mush either.

Those rims are way better than the first ones you were thinking about dude.

Wombozi17 · 04-17-2008, 11:06 AM

Stick with the all black. Those chrome insert things dont really do it for the car.

AM doesn't carry that style Cobra R's. I had to get them from a local aftermarket wheel warehouse. They had every style mustang rim in so many different variations.
