Default New rim options

I am looking at ordering new rims (that i need thanks to destroying one of mine) for this spring.
I was looking on ebay for rims and saw OE wheels, has anyone had deals with these guys? And I know nothing of nexen tires so any thoughts on those?

And has anyone seen black bullitt motorsports on a lazer red mustang? I like black bullitts but i wouldnt mind a little something different.... not that many people up here actually modify their mustangs so deep dish would be stand out, let alone 10.5 rears.

I was looking at these for reference:

they also have plain black bullitts too

If it's any use to you I bought my wheels from wheelindex on ebay. I enquired and surfed for ages and they got better reviews than OE. Best price too . Proof of that? They got my rims to my door in FIVE days and I`m in Scotland!

It`s your money mate.

Even if the wheels are good, they're putting wayy to small tires for the wheels.

A 10.5 really calls for a 315, but they're gonna put 275's on the back, and a 9 really requires 275's, but a 245's acceptable, it'll just look ricey.

Heres some pics of my Laser Red on the same wheels your looking at, just with different centers. I got mine through OE like 3 years ago, their warehouse is only an hour ago or so away from me so I picked mine up rather than paying for shipping. When I called them to order I had them put 315's on the rear and 275's on the front. The tires listed on ebay will be stretched and look like garbage.

I have heard good things about OE wheels, they're relatively cheap and look fine. I was looking to buy another set of saleens and tires for mine a couple of days ago and came across the same eBay store.
