And Why o Why isn't the FR500 style rim not offered in 20 inch ANYWHERE!

Are the black painted FR500 come with a chrome lip or is it a polished lip?

It is a machine finish lip.

Brad

[hellvez]

Not from my caster...I am sure someone makes them but doubtfull in a 5-4.25 pattern.

Ya know by the looks of the pics "I have not had one on my floor" it looks like they have about a 1.5" lip or so...Conservative but nice none the less...

Once they arrive I can elaborate more and take pictures etc...

How would 245/50/18 tires fit on these 18x9 wheels or should I go for 245/40/18? They don't make them in a 45 series...

I think the 245-45-18 is the best fit...The 255-45-18 is also a nice fit. Both of these are somewhat common sizes as well so they are not tough to locate and you have many choices among brands.

Another option is 275-40-18 rears and 245-45-18 fronts...This has worked well for the guys that want that fat rear tire.

So...Those IMO are the best tire options with regard to size.

You are a good example of why I put in quotations "Actual wheel is 5-4.25" in bold letters. I don't have a 5-hole wheel pic otherwise I would have put it up.

Ok,quick question,besides Centerline,does anyone else out there sell the "Blank" wheels,the kind with no pattern or design,I want one with a nice lip on them. I have looked around but was wondering if anyone on here had some.

I dunno how your brakes would like the solid centers. Don't they get a lil more fresh air if there are spokes as apposed to solid?? Seems to make sense. Anyways, I don't know of anything available other than the Smooth wheel Centerline makes.

Here is a Monster Lip though...Had these wheels done up custom for the MarkVIII/Tbird/Cougar

 

[Scorpio1118_2000]

Damn those are nice, those would look good on a Mark. How much Does that wheel cost?

 

[midwestbird]

what is the offset of the fr500 and the speedstars?
