Finally broke down a bought new rims.

Needed 18's for the track next month to match a set of Kumhos I had lying around so I picked up 4 18x9 ASAs from Tirerack.

Front requires a 5mm spacer to clear the brakes. I really like the look.

Tires are too low profile, 265/35/18. But I had these in the garage and will be using them for an event at Putnam Park next month. I will then upgrade to 275/40/18 all the way around.

Not bad rims for under $1K for the entire set.

nice I love the contrast between the white and the satins wheels. Very classic

Thats real clean

 

as my son would say "oh snap-that is tight!"

 

That looks fantastic! Wingless is the way to go

 

I bet it will look great with larger profile tires

Nice Rims!

 

Looks nice! Those remind me of the BBS wheels I have on my other car.

 

Looks sharp! I have been looking to get these wheels but maybe in black.
Thanks for posting.

 

I don't so much care for euro style wheels on american iron, so i would prefer those on an M3 or such. But it seems like all the other opinions are positive and obviously you like them, so enjoy.

 

I have the tirerack.com picture of the black mustang with those exact rims as the background on my desktop. I always wondered if they would look as good as I hoped in real life. Uh, yeah, they do! I'm sold, there will soon be a black 05 with spoiler delete running with the same rims as you! That looks fantastic!

do you have pic from the front and rear... I was looking at those wheels but i really wanted 10' in the back . If you could post some pics from the front and rear i would really appreciate it. BTW the car looks awsome.

 

BTW can you put 275 on the front?

 

Don't have any pics from the rear on hand right now...I'll try to shoot on and update the thread.

My intention after my track event is to go with 275/40/18 at all four coners. Can rotate that way. Will fit no problem.

I think you could even squeeze a 285/40/18 in the back as well.

That's because they are "licensed by BBS". I really like the look of these rims!

 

WBROWNIE, question for ya. Did the 5mm spacer bring the stance of the wheel out much? Did you have to get longer lug bolts?

 

actually, 5mm won't do much...disregard.

 

Don't need longer studs..

Misposted above...you asked about 275 on the front...definitely doable.

 

WBROWNIE, did the spacers come from tirerack too? Or did you have to buy them after the wheels were delivered? Just curious, maybe someday my car will come, and then I will need to know these things!

 

Very Nice!

 

Those rims are clean!
