I think the RTR wheels look right at home in this pic.

I would tend to think that Sterling grey with those RTR's would also look awesome. Can someone photoshop the Kona for Sterling in the last pic ?

Just ordered my RTR wheels today. They are 19x9.5 and the color is gunmetal. I have the springs and the car cover. Just missing the car.

Who else is thinking of doint the same. I'll probably stick with 19" and go with 275-285/40's rubber all around. Here is a site i found that makes those RTR Mustang wheels, they have some very nice ones.

The place that you linked doesn't show any wheels that fit a Mustang, only bmw and audi bolt patterns.

The link i provided is just for reference purposes, the V710 model is exactly the same as the RTR wheels.
And you are right, i called them up to see about a possible Mustang wheel, but they said they needed to redrilled the wheel so the bolt pattern woud fit, then i ended up finding them at RTRmustang.com and ordered.

RTR is the ONLY way to get the 710 for a Mustang. They have exclusive rights to the Mustang bolt pattern/offset for the 710

Montreal did you talk to John today?

What's the offset? They look awfully close to the fender lip. Can you take some pictures from an angle that shows how close the tires are to the fender? Do the tires rub?

But what's the difference, a fraction of an inch? It should still show the general positioning of the tire and fender?

the difference in shoulder is over 1.2 inches (its why i bought the D3) the tire extends of te lip of the wheel severly so the picture you are requesting you would not be able to tekll where the wheel was in relation to the tire.

the difference is mind blowing.
The D3 has a completly square shoulder its a 275 with a 10.3" tread face for gods sake. a normal 275 has a tread face of around 9.4-9.6


these pictures are the best I can come up with online.

ZERO rub in this car.
