Finally getting the wheels I wanted

[87TTOPGT420]

I know there played out here...but after rocking the deep dish bullits for a year...sold them and bought the wheels I wanted

I'm 1 of less then 10 mark viii's in my area that I have ever spotted and of the less then 10...there's only 1 other black on black...and the rest are stock except for a black on graphite which has ricer wheels...so my point is I ordered a set of saleens for my car...18x9 and as my car is already hubbed swapped I saved a boat load

Should really help my car in the badass department...and Definetly won't be played out anywhere but here...so I'm feeling pretty good about it...and Friday cannot come soon enough when then finally arrive

Pics to follow as I know this thread is worthless without pics...also at same time gonna be installing a set of cobra coupe bilstien shocks in rear as the worn out shock mount banging is driving me insane and also replace drivers front air bag as Im tired of it clicking and making noise on hot days...then reinstall asham 8 and my new mandrel exhaust systems kit...

Car looked good with bullits...but they were not my first choice and at the time it was a smokin deal...some may argue...but saleens just make these cars

I agree. "Played out" is played out. Those wheels look perfect on these.

 

[87TTOPGT420]

Very true...I wish there was something less "played out" I could have said without saying played out lol

 

[dnehthend]

do you have pics of your last setup?

 

[chris2523]

i don't like it when people say they are played out.. cuz really, there aren't that many of them out there. we all just happen to frequent here. how often do you see a mark? let alone one with aftermarket wheels. not to mention the same aftermarket wheels as you!

 

[87TTOPGT420]

Old setup 18" deep dish bullits

Definetly not played out around here lol as I will be the only one with them on a mark viii in my area

 

[izackary]

Oooo, pretty. Watcha doin with the bullitts?

 

[slowmkviii]

I like bullits better but it will still be sexy.

 

[GMAN]

What color is your car? What color Saleens did you get?

 

[87TTOPGT420]

Bullits are gone sold them to find the new wheels...right now car is riding on 2001 towncar wheels

Looks good. I like them better than bullets, unless they are the silver or grey color on a certain colored car. What you have now looks much better. Are you on air or stuck up that high?

 

[87TTOPGT420]

Air

Had asham8 but broke it so had to uninstall it plan to sensor lower, and install a new compressor as mine seems to be having trouble venting at times

 

[izackary]

Why not just a spider valve, then?

 

[87TTOPGT420]

Spider valve? More info? Is it some American air sells?

 

[izackary]

From what I understand (which is slowly increasing), it bypasses the compressor's venting system and expels all moisture while doing so...

 

[87TTOPGT420]

For $275plus shipping though

 

[izackary]

Do some research and look around, though. I don't know who else sells them new; this is an upgraded recently released model. You may find them used as well.
