Check out these wheels and tires and tell me what you think. Debating on if they are worth 450. I can buy cobra r knockoffs with tires for about a thousand. They are going on my new to me mustang. Or should I just get some 24 inch rims j/k

450 for generic Rustang wheels? No. $450 for generic Rustang wheels and tires that you can't really make out the tread depth on? No.

Plus a 4 hour drive? Hell no.
24's? Oh please... go with 26 inch RimZ, y0! they be mad Tyte!

What would you pay? I dont normally buy oem wheels, but have noticed they are rather expensive.

I can't answer that question. I haven't had the need to buy Mustang Wheels, so alternately I haven't played the "shopping game" to be able to tell you what I would pay for them.

But if you like spoked wheels, I have a nice chrome set you might be interested in. "Sure," you say. "That's his agenda. He wants to sell me his wheels, that's why he wouldn't buy these mustang wheels." It's nothing of the sort. I just thought about them as I was writing this.

I am looking for 17x8 or 17x9 wheels and tires. Send me some pics. I am pretty sure the pattern is 5x114.3 with a medium to high offset.

Man go with the new Saleen wheels, those are incredible. How much you pay for that Stang?

Well... I can't sell you these wheels then. They are 16X7's. Mark VIII and Rustang bolt patterns.

3000 I only paid that much because it has a newly rebuilt engine (with receipt and warranty from a reputable machine shop) and a new top. In two weeks, Ive already put about 300.00 into it.
