Hey guys. I'm looking for 4 lug 17x8 white wheels saleen or cobra style.
I'm starting think nobody carries them.
Im not converting to 5 lug. I'm not buying wheels then sending them to be powder coated.
Wonder if anyone could help me locate white wheels for 4 lug fox body. It's an 89 gt vert.
Thanks

I've seen 16" ponys in white. I think I've seen saleen wheels in white but don't know what size they where, maclearen (I know I didn't spell that right so feel free to correct me and you know who you are) had white wheels, again don't know what size.
And what would be wrong with powder coating?
4 lug has limited selection

Seems to me that writing's on the wall.

Google is a mighty thing. I can't believe that there is a supplier of new, white, 17", 4 lug wheels out there that can't be found from that search if they are out there,.....but what the hell.......

G,O,O,G,L,E...................

Nope.

You are looking for sooo many needles,...First a white wheel (no problem)
Then narrow it down to 17"...........(uhhh,...ok still some stuff out there)
Then send it to oblivion by adding in 4 lug.............(Poof!)

The writing on the wall part is your unwillingness to simply buy a set of unpolished 4 lug wheels in your size and bolt pattern and send them to your local powder coater.
Or if you just don't want to spend that money,..you can always paint them yourself like a few on here have done. A real 2 part catalyzed acrylic urethane paint is tough as nails, and about 80.00 a qt.

Seems to me that all of you Mustang aficionados would say something about 17 x 9 fitment on an 89 front end...

I thought that was not gonna happen w/o C/A interference issues?

He'll need Rack limiters to keep from rubbing.

Oh,..here it is,.....they call my travel limiters..............fenders.

I think a Fairmont fender is narrower than a Mustang anything. A 17x9 wouldn't even get by when pointed straight ahead.
(exaggeration)
I ended up w/ a 17 x 8 but my tire is obviously up inside the fender.
Will a Mustang accommodate a 17 x 9 w/ a slammed stance? Or is it gonna have to have a Rjaaa raise?
