Opinions on new wheel/tire combo with eaton swap - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

Huudini · 02-01-2012, 10:39 AM

I am getting an eaton swap done to my car in march and I know I am going to need new wheels and tires. I have 17x9 all around and I know that's not enough with my gears and a blower. I want to keep it like a street look so I was wondering what you guys think I should do? Thanks!

The nines should hold a 285 atleast. Shouldnt that be enough tire for most occasions?

Hmmm those are some good ideas. My friend jus hit me up and has saleen replicas 18x9 in front 18x10 in the back. For wheels and tires he wants 300 cause he needs cash bad. Worth it?

Get something soft for the rears. NT05, BFG DR, etc. I've got M&H Racemasters. The car actually hooks better with a gear in it.
