Wheels!!!! Come on in!

[Svt Fox]

Alright fellas, I'm gathering opinions on what wheels I should get for my fox. I am having a difficult decision. I only have about $1500 to play with for the wheel budget.

Here are the selections I have narrowed it down to.

17"s in a 17x8 & 17x10 with 315's
Fr500, anthracite, staggered
SC replica, chrome, staggered
Pony R, silver, staggered

17"s OEM
1998 Cobra R's, silver or bronze with 245s in the front and 275 Mt DR in the back

18"s
1995 cobra r replicas, 18x9, 18x10
chrome
255's in the front, 305's in the back


I would like to here your opinions good or bad!

18x9 and 18x10 XXR 521's there supercheap but they look badass.

I do believe some fender rolling was involved to get it that low and run that size tire. lol looks awesome though

 

[Svt Fox]

Those are sexy but the tires look a little too stretched for my taste.

 

[ModFoxMustangs]

wow, those look awesome

I talked to XXR today. I am really interested in running their 531 wheel because it looks very similar to the CCW classic wheel without the expense. They currently only make the 531 wheel in 15" and 16" sizes but are working on bigger.

The first pic is the xxr wheel. The second picture is the ccw wheel.

yeah the wheels are streched in the above pics and I dislike the rear IRS camber. The style I like and I would be getting proper tires to fit. 315 Nitto's would work on the rear.

I do thank you for steering this in my direction! I am in lust with the 531!
17x8's in the front, 17x10's in the back.

245's in the front 315's in the back!

Check out the SVE Drift wheels

255 up front and 315 in the rear. My notch is lowered 1.5" and still clears just fine with the wheels in my pic.

18's?

How bad was the "massaging" in the rear inner wheel wells?

 

[vabeachsand]

It can be done. the fenders should also be rolled as well.

I am going to have to check out the XXR wheels. That black coupe is sick!!

Just installed a set of SVE Drifts. SN95 rear. Rears are 18x10 with 285/35/18 . Fronts are 18x9 255/40/18. The rears are off the 11-14 cars and have 7.3" backspacing, the front are from the 94-04 cars. Doe to backspacing you can only run a 285/35/18, maybe a 295, but the fender lips need to be rolled. Tons of space for tailpipes and no inner fender well massaging required.

They look very nice on your car!

Thanks. You said you like CCW classics. Look at Late model resto Series 1. $900 for a set of four.

or AMR wheels for just over your budget including tires. I like the chrome ones
