Another Newb ? about 10.5" DD rims.

Maza4ever14 · Jun 22, 2007

Hey everybody, havent really posted in here in a while but it is good to be back.

Recently I was going to sell the car so I stripped it of the K&N Fipk, TB & Plenum and X pipe. But I changed my mind and I wanna do it all over again but do it right

Now the first mods i wanna do are going to be the X pipe, Catback, and the rims. But I'm going to focus on the rims first.

Right now, I am eyeing these 10.5" DD Anthracite Bullitts on AmerMus.com Good price and great with the 6% Discount and i threw in some stem caps and a 14 inch antenna.

So anyway, I am planning on slappin some 315s on the back. I was lookin at those Summitomos. Will there be any fitment issues? I think someone answered me the question of flipping the quadshock i think? Is that a pull it out and flip it upside down and re intall? And are Summitomos good tires? Any other recommendations?

Thanks in advance, and it feels good to be back!:SNSign:

I got my Sumi's in a package deal with my rims, so I didn't have a choice, but I'm OK with them...they are cheap, but they are also quiet, decent traction, decent in wet weather...for a $99 315 tire, they're pretty good. That being said, my next tires will, if funds are available, probably be Goodyear Eagle D1-G3 or whatever they heck they are called. But I really have no complaints about these Sumis - honestly, they've suprised me...better than I expected.
315 on the rear on an SN-95 is no issue, provided the offset and backspacing is correct. Buying Mustang specific rims, you won't have to worry about these details - they'll fit.
That's the proper procedure for flipping the quad-shock thingie...but if you have aftermarket LCAs, you can ditch the quads (and brackets) completely...I did. PM me your email if you want additional pics.

I have the 10.5 bullitts with sumo's 315s on the back and no problems at all with rubbing. Did not have to do anything at all with the quads

Yeah, I should have mentioned that there may not be an issue at all. I didn't even check to see if it would be an problem - I figured while I was there, I might as well just pull em off since I'd had my LCAs installed for about 6 months.

I think it all just depends on which tires you go with. Certain tires run bigger so you might run into some rubbing issues. I know for sure Sumo's don't though.

6% Discount

How do you get an extra 6%?

TIA

Maza4ever14 · Jun 23, 2007

if you use mustangboards for a promo code it takes 6% off the total purchase

Thanks again for that info. I like saving $$$$, cause I almost bought this stuff last night. I'm going to pick up the 10.5" DD Anthracite Bullitts, the sumo tires, and center caps for $563

Mine fit fine with out messing with the quad at all.

Seeing as how i just got 315 Sumo's, i know there is no rubbing.
