Well they have a nice solid sidewall profile - one of the reasons I like them so much. I really like the look of the Nittos and can;t complain about the quality so far.

SHould have no probs with 275s all around (Stedda Q cars all run that).

I might just go 275s up front whenever I need new tires.....

Thanks for the info and photos. I'm thinking about getting a set of staggered 20's. They are second on death row. The StopTech BBK seems to be able to slaughter my plans for wheels one after another. I'm going to make some calls tomorrow and see what I can come up with.

im not really a fan of the rims, but the do make his car look "unique".
I think that when people ask what do you think, theyre asking for "yes, i like them" or " no, i dont", but i noticed, not just on forums, but even where i live, if something is on a car that someone doesnt like they make so many rude comments about it. If people dont like something then just say its not your cup of tea.

dont make anyone feel bad about what they like. For ex., i dont like bullit rims but i would never be rude and say how horribe it looks, or how it makes me rush to the er or anything of that like that.

all im saying is can we all be a little respectful of other peoples choices? :dunno:

While i will agree with you in 99.5% of the cases out there, it's not like I told him his first born was so ugly, it was unlovable. Or told him that something that he was eating was so horribly disgusting, that I thought I would vomit right then and there.

He HAS to know that buying rims like that, for ANY car, esp a Mustang, will be even slightly controvertial. He likes them obviously, and good on him for not giving in to common sense or any semblence of styling prowess. But buying those rims, and posting pics of them on a forum full of Mustang lovers...well if he couldn't see this coming, he needs his eyes checked.

I expected to get harassed for my post, but I wanted to state my opinion anyways. Glad to see the majority here agree with me too! I normally bite my tongue but this was just too extreme for even me to keep quiet!

I'm running Forgeline SP3P wheels. The wheels are 19" modular, forged, and very lightweight. The centers are powdercoated gunmetal grey and the lips are polished aluminum. They are high end wheels, up there with Fikse and HRE.

They're 19x9 up front with 275/35's and 19x10 in rear with 295/35's.

Ah, I wish I could tell ya...never had a chance to weigh them. I just remember lifting the wheels out of the boxes and being amazed at how light they were. They felt like they were made out of plastic or like the wheel center was hollow. It's amazing.

Ah, I wish I could tell ya...never had a chance to weigh them. I just remember lifting the wheels out of the boxes and being amazed at how light they were. They felt like they were made out of plastic or like the wheel center was hollow. It's amazing.

Kris

I asked because I weighed a stock setup and it was 50lbs on my scale...then the new tires I have are at 53. Is that extra 3lbs going to really make any difference?

Exactly what I have on mine, although I think next time I will be getting 285 or bigger on the rear.

Hey Jason....it'll be part-time retro and part-time "the other theme" come spring time. Bought a brand new torque wrench over Christmas and a nice little hydraulic jack to make changing wheels as easy as changing underwear. Truth is, those Pirelli's make me ill when I push it and I got so tired of hearing about everyone's bigger wheel/tire combo's (and how great they are) that it made me sick. Besides, the credit card was at "0" for a change and we just can't have that, can we?? And that retro thing.....it's just a big fad (OK, just kidding).

No....the Magnums are gonna stay for show I think. The new tires/wheels are gonna be for the GO when I feel like it. So give the new ones a chance brother !! Me thinks they might just look OK.

Talk to ya - Mark

PS 2Toys....no such luck yet with bigger than 18's from Wheel Vintiques, they're pretty slow to respond to this kinda thing. And their current 18's won't fit our cars (yet). Too bad....deep dish 18s with the correct offset would be killer.

Nice...



I know what you mean! I love that combo. I just saw a set of four 18s with Nitto rubber get away from me on ebay for 999 and that was the BUY IT NOW price. Makes me sick that I didn't have the funds at the moment or I would have snatched those suckers up!

Did you go with chrome? I am about ready to order the same setup. I chose to go 255/35/20 and 285/30/20 on BFG KDW NT tires. Post some photos of your wheels when you get them in.

What do you guys think of these wheels? Niche F-18 Chrome 20's. Let's hear it hate or love. I wish they were my cars, but they're not, I'm just considering the wheels.

Stangette 1/10/06 06:56 AM

:+1: with clockworks - futuristic looking with the body enhancements ---

.... i'm partial to rims on these new 'Stangs --- like the chrome look best on the red.....
