Pretty pissed I had my camera on the wrong setting. But I am gonna get some new pics tomorrow....as for now you get the idea.

17x9, 17x10.5 silver FR500's

Yep...I crossed over to the FR side! Added FR500 center caps too. All new rubbers, new lugs and locks.

Scored them off a guy on SVT for $45. Hard to find them used and new they are $50 a piece!

Got the wheel kit off AM that comes with the valve stems, chrome acorn lugs, and 4 locks.

probiker427 04-20-2010 06:15 PM

damn i really like them, ill have to try to find them cheap

rkaz 04-20-2010 06:17 PM

Those look really bad ass man! The first pic is my fav.

Slither 04-20-2010 06:21 PM

Thanks. I will get my good quality pics up tomorrow. I was in a hurry before it got dark and forgot to change the damn setting!

rkaz 04-20-2010 06:24 PM

R those GT badges off a s197? Just noticed them, I like those.

krenogin 04-20-2010 06:38 PM

I think the old bullitts may have suited it more. I just keep seeing that mean stance when i first seen ur car.

Lances03SVT 04-20-2010 06:41 PM

Not feeling it Donnie.

Slither 04-20-2010 06:46 PM

Yeah those are the new GT badges.

And I agree...I still love my old wheels but I just needed some change. I needed to buy new rears anyway so I thought it would be a good time to try a new look.

I hated the FR's at first and I still don't care too much for the black ones but a guy on my site had silver FR's on his 05 and I thought the colors went really well together. Part of the inspiration for my car was that FR500 Mustang that was built several years ago that was silver. Had the silver rims on it too and that is when I fell in love.

Gonna take me a bit to get used to em.

krenogin 04-20-2010 07:03 PM

how much did you get em for?

Slither 04-20-2010 07:13 PM

I had to split my orders up but the rears were $280 from StangMods.com

The fronts were on back order for 3 weeks so I went to LateModelRestoration and got them for $260

Got the tires from American Muscle...$450 or so for all 4 of them.

Two Words. "Black. Chrome." :cool:

Looks good Donne, it's just a shock and doesn't look right because I'm so used to the Bullitts...... I'll have to let it marinate and come back again.

PColav6 04-20-2010 08:10 PM

DUDE! Can we PLEASE swap those onto my car one day so I can see how they look? I've been wanting silver FRs for a while. lol

zigzagg321 04-20-2010 09:37 PM

looks damn good.

Deathdiesel 04-20-2010 09:42 PM

I like, but i think they are a tiny bit small, 18s would be perfect IMO. :p

krenogin 04-20-2010 10:12 PM

Well. If you want 18's i'll trade! I got my saleens!

Pilks 04-21-2010 05:25 AM

I dunno i think 18's would have been perfect..... but you have a sweet ride

King 04-21-2010 05:19 PM

The car looks great! The new rims definitely give the whole car a little more "edge". Nice call, sir!

sand1303 04-22-2010 08:36 PM

looks good

foncarelli 04-24-2010 10:50 AM
