I want to buy Torque Thrust II 20 X10 's for the rear and 18X8.5 's for the front. I went to Discount Tire and they quoted me 6 to 8 weeks. Do you know if anyone stocks these wheels? I waited too long to decide on wheels and my car gets delivered in two weeks. :bang:

Not trying to discourage you or stick my nose in your mods but what size tires are you planning on using front/rear? The reason I am asking is that different size tires between front/rear axles can cause issues with the ABS system if the revolutions per mile are to far off. I just went through a lengthy issue with my ABS and the first question Ford ask was if all 4 tires were the same size. I do not know how much variance can be tolerated by the ABS system without causing a problem and Ford would not say. I know several others have used different size tires between front/rear and have not experienced any problems. My only advice is be careful when using different size tires between the front/rear axles.

Thank you. I figured that was the case but wanted to check it out. I guess I should be patient and wait. Thanks again for the reply.

The other thing to consider with the American Racing Torq Thrust IIs is that they are a 2-piece wheel...you may want to search for a one-piece that is similar (they're out there, but are hard to find).

Took 8 weeks for mine to show up and then another 6 weeks for them to get me a set with the correct backspacing. Still waiting for my center caps....5 months and counting
