Im not able to find Crager's website now, but Im sure I saw they were offered in 18x9 also the centercaps say "Crager" on them unlike other knockoff wheels.
I would love to get some wheels and tires, and I will do it. The temptation is to buy them now, and although I have the money I don't want to spend it, when I have twice as much as I do now in savings I will consider it.
Wheel and Tires I totaled to be like $1,618
For the rubber was thinking
BFGoodrich g-Force T/A KDW-2
55/45-18 up front
285/40-18 out back.

Back in the day Cragar S/S were a kool wheel for any vehicle. I think the orginal would be a very good choice. These appear to be a knock off.
As are the Cobra wheels on their site. The last time I checked Cragar did not make an 18 X 9. Just my
$.02 here.

Pull the trigger Klous, I think they would look kick hiney on Sonic Blue.
Remember the old keystones. I wonder what a set of 18's would like like on a stang. I had them on my 76 Torino, they were sharp

I don't think Cragar wheels belong on a Mustang... those are Chevy/Mopar wheels. Just get some Bullitts. You can get some chrome 18x9 bullitts for about the same price.

Those are 610 series aluminium chrome rims, which, guess what, are exactly what's on your car, just add the chrome.
Klous, get a hold of a Discount Tire store if you can, they'll make some great deals on these. The 17's can be had for under $100 a pop with a tire package. I'm sure you could handily beat that eBay auction as well if you're looking for the 18's. Which make them much cheaper than Bullits.

According to Discount Tires website they don't sell Cragar wheels. I guess I have to call the store to findout what they sell? In fact I wasn't able to find any bullet style wheels on their website.

Hey Klous, buy those wheels you want so bad, and I will take your factory bullits off your hands in a heartbeat, and that will give you some money back

Klous.. I can guarantee beyond a shadow of a doubt that Discount Tire does sell Cragar. I know this because I purchased a set of Cragar Series 610 17-inch wheels from a local Discount Tire store earlier today. Once they arrive they'll be fitted with 255/50-17 Nitto NT-450 tires and installed on my car. I estimate that I should have them no later than Thursday of next week.
