Hey everybody, I joined the lowering club finally! But I'm do't know what to get yet. I will soon be putting my truck back to stock height & then lowering it for the stance that D. has. But I was wondering what wheels & tires to get. I can't make up my mind on either 17x9 Cobra R's or 18x9 Saleens. I think that I'll be going w. the Saleens after all. But I don't know what color to get or what not. But if anybody can help me out, that would be awesome! And does anybody know where I can get a "key" or what not to lower my truck & what should I do in the rear? THANKS

I think I may go w. these wheels...





DESCRIPTION: This is an Awesome set of two18x9" and two 18x10" White Saleen Style Mustang rims. These are powdercoated white with a clear coat protectant! These replicas are awesome looking wheels and are new in the box, never mounted. Ours replicas use the original size centercap.

FITMENT: These wheels will fit 1994 - 2004 Mustangs. Also: Ford Explorers with 1/4" spacers.

^^ Will I have to get some spacers for these things to work?

And maybe these tires...

If it still looks like it does in your avatar, don't change it

 

one question you acully finally going to get a front bumper

 

lol, yea he is, but he doesnt know if a ranger one will work with the front.

Id go white either way brenton, either cobra's or saleens. just white!

 

39.5 boggers with a solid front axle!thats my $0.2

 

id go with the 18 x 9...

 

Do you still have the rims you were selling, I'd go with those.

 

wow. this is gonna be a huge change. can't wait to see pics

 

Does anybody know of a good size tire for the 18's?

Brenton

 

how low are you going with that thing man? how soon?

 

Very soon, the lift will be off by Sat. And I'll just be on some stock 2000 Mustang GT wheels for now. And I'll hopefully be about the same height as D.

I edited the 1st post, tell me what you think!

Brenton

 

i like the wheels, IMO black would look better though. what are you doin about fenders?

edit: somethin like this but without the chrome lip

 

White would look awesome for your truck.

 

in the rear, just flip the shackles. will bring rear down around 1.5-2".

come down here this weekend. we can both take our lifts off. two pairs of hands are better than one.

 

I may do that Chris... I'll have to think about it!

I edited my 1st post again...

Brenton

 

I'm going w. the Saleens now. Brian made up my mind!

Ok, since I'll be running 18x9's in the front & 18x10's in the rear. What size tires should I get? I'm sorry, but I don't know a lot about these other kind of size tires...

Brenton

 

let me know. my weekends open. all day saturday, or after 10 on sunday. Or stay here sat and finish sunday. no prob.

what size tires are those mustang ones you gonna be running? We could do the shafle flip while your here too. I got all the tools for everything.

 

ahahaha you quoted me in your sig, thats funny.

 

I need HELP!!! lol

I'll be running 18x9's in the front & 18x10's in the rear. By doing so, what size tires should I get if I am going to remove the rear blocks & uncranking the torsion bars in the front?

Brenton

 

Hey, what are you doing Saturday? I'm off from work and don't have crap to do...My wheels will be here today and most likely getting them put on today if they get here before my mech leaves Ford for the day..If not they will get put on tommorow and I will be over on Sat to help you out with taking the lift off and taking my BL off as well so its one less thing to do for the 21st...lol

 

This is crazy! Everyone is going opposite directions! Even though i love it lifted...it will look awesome low too! Good luck!

 

Yeah, i'll be interested on what its going to look like when its lowered.

Werent you going to get your truck painted..?

 

I thinkyou should keep it at the height its at now and go for some 26 inch rims?

bling bling.

yes i know you already took the lift off, just wanted to say that.
