Those are sick! Never seen em.

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

Thanks man!

They were originally made for a BMW 5 series, but they were exactly what I was looking for, so I had the bolt pattern drilled out and hubcentric rings custom made so that they'd fit. I'm pretty happy with the overall look and will be thrilled once I get the car lowered!

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

Good to see something different!

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

These look amazing on your oxford white :ORANGE:

I was never a fan of black wheels until the mach I bought had them... now ive taking a liking to them (pics do no justice and must see them in person) but in the market for another set just to switch it up once in awhile.. and daahamm does this thread help but may add some confusion b/c there are so many sick lookin setups here :).. definitely a sweet thread

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

Yeah, I like the star shape and the way it cuts into the lugs.

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

Nice! Can't wait till mine looks like that. Just need to paint them and order tires...

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

sweet thanks man... i tell ya i so wasnt into black wheels before this.. i get so many compliments on them id never in a million years thought i would.. when i bought the mach these wheels were on them and i planned on taking them off right away but they grew on me every day.. now i love the look.. good luck with your plan.. im sure its gonna look sick

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

Finnaly got the 18x9/18x10 FR500s on.

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

What size rubber?

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

I put 265/35 on the front and 295/35 on the back. Front tires are a little shorter than stock, and rears are a little taller, but still looks good.

The NT05s are great tires so far. Good in the rain, stick, but a little but noisier than the Falcon 912s.

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

damit guy.... are you gnna give us all the info or dib and dab all freakin day? follow the rules.. what are your suspension mods.. !!?? just give us everythng like the thread said.. lmao.. imagine i really was serious? haa.. jk.. :) looks really good man...

so in all seriousness hows the ride? does it suffer a little bit with the tall tires and shorter sidewalls? been curious about that b/c i may want to go your route one day.

thanks and hope i got ya fired up for a second.. ha :)

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

Suspension is stock, for now. It is a bit more harsh of a ride with the shorter sidewall, but not too bad. You feel the bumps a little bit more, and I think some of the smaller bumps that I didn't feel before are noticeable now, that or all the roads around here went to bad while I was putting the tires on...

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

Nice, chrome on black always looks good.

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

Here are some pics of my car before I sold it...

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

Nice, I may have to go after that all black look. I am still undecided on rims, 18" for sure, black Saleens? Cruzin Concepts Black FR500's? or Hyperchrome Saleens from AM?

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

I think those black FR500's would look best on your black Mach. I haven't seen anyone else with flat black wheels so yours would be unique :ORANGE:

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

I bought the Mach new and it just turned 30K miles. I decided to go with the FR500 black rims. 18X9 front and 18X10 rear. The tires are Cooper Zeon 2XS, 245/45 front and 275/40 rear.

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

Looks nice.

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

this the one you sold to this one big white guy that lives in sf?? forgot what his name was lol..ive been to his house and it seems exactly like the one he has lol... and it does look bad azz in person..

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

I'm still waiting for the black lug nuts. Everything was on back order!

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

gotchya.. think it looks great.. very clean

Re: The Wheel Pictures Thread
 

After 8 months, I finally painted and installed my 03 Cobra wheels. Spent hours stripping them and got so fed up with working on them that I halfassed the paint job. I can't really paint either. Could have used an extra can of paint. Did etching primer, rustoleum wheel paint, and rustoleum wheel clear. Only waited about an hour between paint and clear and 19 hours between clear and tire mounting. They chipped a bit around the lip mounting the tires and a bit here and there around the lugs. Oh well. I still love how they look!
