Need your help....
Well I've been looking for wheels and found some on ebay. I can get 18x9-10's with tires for $1029 shipped. But I don't really care for the tires. So I have the option of getting the wheels for $574 shipped. My question is...what kind of tires can I get for the $455 left over? I want a moderate/decent front tire and a drag radial for the back. Whats the sizes and brands can $455 bucks get me?

I dont think you will find a decent set of NEW 18 inch tires for those rims at less than $500.
Sumitomos are a good bank for the buck tire. |
I got mine on Ebay as a wheel/tire combo and ended up with Nexxen 3000 ZR's. They're made by Dunlop and so far have been great. Call them and see if / what else they offer for a bit more.
|
As zigzagg said for 18x10 in the back, you have a very small selection that cost a pretty penny. Maybe $600 for all 4.
|
if u want a DR its gonna be at least 800(w/o shipping)...for 315/30x18 BFG DR..its about 500 for 2....then u choose anything for the front....thatll be about 300

Well how are those tires that come with the wheel/tire combos on ebay? Or are they just as crappy as the Daytons that are on the car now.

Like I said, mine are actually great so far. They're made by Dunlop, called the Nexxen 3000 and they're ZR-rated, nice tread pattern, good grip. Comes pre mounted, balanced, everything. Just get em and put them on your car. When I ordered my Cobra R kit I got Falken ZR's with it, they offered that upgrade. See what options they have. But I can say, the Nexxen 3000's are actually really good tires man, Dunlop has always been a good company as far as tires of theirs I have ran. |
Make sure they are the right size of tires on the EBay auction.They put small tires on the 18x10's sometimes.
|
Yeah, defenitely check the sizes.

where did u find that combo for that price? ebay? not bad, im deffinitly putting the black bullitt on my 87' stang convertible, havent seen it done yet, atleast in DD
|
The tires look too low profile to me. Now I found another listing that has em for $1,395 and you get Toyo T1R tires 275/35 ZR18 (fronts) and 295/35 ZR18 (rears).
|
Now that's the right sizes!!!!
|
I have over $1500 in my tire,wheel,and spinner setup.
|
I like mine, dig the low profile. I'll probably just go a little bigger when I replace my tires though. Depends on how it looks when I lower it.
