Wheel Setup Help

I have a 2009 stang and im looking for a new set of wheels.. I really like the look of these darkstars but my car is a DD and i do have to drive in the rain occassionally so i won't be using drag radials... is there a way to achieve a similar look without the radials?


is there a way to achieve the look without radials? Open to ideas

Not sure about the Dark Stars, but the polished Race Stars come in some DD friendly sizes. While I do have 325/50/15 drag radials on the back I went with more DD friendly 17 by 7 Race Stars for the front.

Uh...regular tires instead of drag tires. Not quite understanding what your issue is here. You can by the rims separately without tires on them. I opted to put cheater slicks on mine, but you can put whatever tires you want on them.

Below is a non-radial cheater slick, Hoosier QTP
