Well they're really common regardless of the muscle car. For every 2-3 Mustangs I see with Bullitts, I'll see an F-body or two with Torq Thrust II's (same design), or an old school muscle car with some Cragar SS's.

convoy's car looks sick w/that set-up. just shows that if it is done correctly, it can look great.

Speaking of Mustang wheels check these Saleen 7spoke 20inchers, when I saw them in person I was really impressed. If someone could photoshop these on an SC I would love to see it!

ya those would be cool, but i think 20"s are too big for the SC's, if they had 18"s or 19"s then that would be a really cool option

Wish I saw this thread earlier. Here are some old *** pics. Use to have 18 by 9's up front. They actually didnt look bad at all. and they are dirt cheap. I was going to get 2 more and use them as winter wheels. Sorry about the old crappy pics

the billets look pretty descent but i would get a set of mustang "s style" 5 spoke wheels in 18x9 and 18x10 in black. when the car is slammed i think it would look good. my dads friend has a cnc shop so i can probably have some aluminum center caps made that have the lexus "L" on them

ill cut someone a deal. i have a set of supra tt wheels with tires. rears are okay. fronts are shot. ill give an extra set of 17" tires as well in exchange for what those wheels cost on ebay

hey friend of mine let me try his saleen wheels on today i'm seriously considering buying a set.

i can get a set of 18x9 18x10 with 24 & 22mm offsets for 379 + 89 shipping..


or a set with tires for around 1000k



it's pretty hard finding set of wheels with those specs for that price, plus they sell blank chrome center caps, they also have a set with rivets which would make them look a little less like stang wheels i guess.



friends camera phone sucked *** i have no idea why it tinted the pics green but you get the ideal..






also these are 18x9 with 245/40's on the pics, if i do get any stang wheels i'm getting the 18x9 and 18x10's or 17x9 with a 18x10 and 245 up front and 275's at least in the back

Any "profile" pics of the Saleen wheels?

I like the widths, but not sure I'm up to running that aggressive of an offset.

as far as Mustang replicas are going, i'm feeling the FR500 replicas more than anything, but not sure about the offset..i'm still retarted when it comes to offsets, but what do you think?
