So Ive been eyeballing the fanblades. Damn the wheels are cheap, its the tires that will really set you back. A set of (4) 255/45/18 performance tires run almost $900 mounted and balanced.

I really like the fanblades and would love to have them, but at $1600ish for a set, Im liking my upgrade GT wheels alittle better.

Hey Twofocused,

Sorry to sound a little ignorant, but what do you mean by fanblades? I'm assuming they are some type of wheel? Please enlighten me!

look for the optional fanblade 18" wheels on ebay. there is usually an auction or two for new take offs. this would be your cheapest option.

I hear you about the tires that’s why I decided to switch from the ugly GT wheels to the nice GT Bullit wheels, I decided to go this was because I can use the same tires I got with my wheels, so it only cost me the price of the wheels,

Saleens has a special price on the talk-off Bullit wheels/tires a sweet deal I must say, I wish they had it when I did my switch, never hurts to have an extra set of tires.
