I just got around to measuring my white Saleen wheels that I replaced with the OE Direct ones and guess what......the rear wheels are already 20x10 and the fronts are 20x9 My window sticker states that I have 20x9's all the way around.....what a waste of $$. I do like the chrome wheels, but I only bought the new ones because I needed the 20x10 out back.

Anyhow, does anyone know someone looking for 2-20x10's and 2-20x9's? They're white but I'll get them finished to anyone's spec's or just drop the price. $1000 takes all 4.

what was the purpose for the 10's? did you want more grip? or just a look. Could of always just got DR's for the grip factor. Granted at saleen that should of never happened, however, you greatly benefited from it, so maybe you can get if not all or most of your $ back

I wanted the 10's so I could put a larger tire on because I am far from stock and putting down quite a bit of HP. As far as DR's go, no one is making DR's that'll fit on 20" wheels and I really down't want to drop to 18 wheels as the car would look rather hellarious - seen the Roush's?

Damn. I can't believe you didn't measure them. Believe it or not because the rear and front tires are 275's it's a well known fact that Saleen makes that mistake often. They make it most often if you have the tire ( P-Zero ) upgrade.
Hee hee.

I can't believe I didn't measure them either Chalk that one up as a leeson learned that will never be forgotten. I knew something was wrong after I got the wheels on because the wheel/fender gap didn't seem to change much....I just didn't want to admit a mistake was made or that I simpply failed to do some simple measuring.....

You're exactly right about the P-Zero upgrad as that is what I got....

So, Marcus, how do I get in-touch with the company that was going to widen your wheels? I may just take my old wheels and bump the rears up to 11.5 if I can't sell them.

I like the white wheels myself. I think its unique. I'd sell the chrome and use the $ to widen the white ones to 11.5, that would be nice.
