Agree. I plan to have 2 sets of wheels for this car and the the winter TL wheels. :)

Fucking Ivan... I bought the Racing Harts and 2 days later after 3 months of trying to get ahold of him he replies about the Eurolines. Grrr...

Eh?

I think 17" or 18"s would look more proportional to the car but, its your car. Are you keeping these or planning on another set?

18s yes, 17s, really depends on the wheel. I've seen 17s on the car and they didnt look that great. It didnt look proportional since the car is so big

You don't know what you're talking about. You're not very smart, and the things you're saying are nonsense. And I'm not angry. But you do need to shut up.

17s for a winter wheel, 18s or 19s for summer fun. I just wish you'd bag the damn thing like I suggested years ago when you bought it and a proper offset/size wheel. Then we wouldn't see strips of tire fly down Manchester.

I'm getting to the point where 19's might be too big and the tires to replace them are too much as well... I know 17's are ok on the car since I've rocked the TL wheels for a long time and they worked great.

I'm stil looking at the Euroline DH's and those are 19x8 +40... I'm up in the air about them though. The car gets painted soon and It crossed my mind to get over fenders and throw on a big wide wheel.


Currently, as of the other night, i raised the car up about an inch all around to prevent the scrapping, rubbing, and destroying my fenders. Once it goes in for paint, it will be modded in these areas to have the car lowered again and see what happens.

I think 18's would look absolutely perfect, 19"s need a small tire to fit and just look disproportional.

Over fenders could look very nice if they were molded nicely and weren't too big.

Yes, they would be molded in... that would look dumb on my car if they weren't.

minus the ugly front fenders...

aLso, a rear tail conversion will be coming soon as well...

I know, keyword NICELY

Like a very slight ridge between body and fender, large angles take away from clean lines on big bodies.

Ok ,well... I'm not really digging the 19 in thin spoke Racing Harts.

I did find out something thought about Mustangs. That have the right offsets. :)


They make these...
18x9 +35

Another set would be like this...
Mustang Fan blades...
18x8
