Default New Rims

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.

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.

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."

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.

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

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