if you dont mind me asking where did you get the tires and a price becuase i have the same rims looking for the same tires in the same sizes haha

 

[Blackie Lawless]

[BurningRubber]

good choice of wheels! your bullitt gas cap matches them too!

Rear shots will come asap! I'm going to try and get some good outside shots at some park or decent location. As far as the cost go the tires were 270$/piece for 295/35 and 240$/piece for 265/35. Tires for 18's arent cheap! The wheels were $180 for the 18x10 and $170 for the 18x9 from americanmuscle.com which I highly recommend to buy from...great service and products!! The tires were purchased through tire discounters.
I looked into buying them from tirerack.com then having a tire shop mount and balance but in the end it was about the same price, plus a "free" alignment was given if you buy 4 tires from tire discounters. the wheel quality is excellent. Only problem I have is the stock center caps dont fit snuggly. Its probably from being put in and taken out so much. Has anyone else had this problem with reusing stock centercaps. Basically, they are in but you can spin them around.
To sum it up, both the wheels and tires are sweet....

HAHA,funny i got my rims from american muscle too and my center caps do the exact same thing,its because they arent the right size.our wheels take one thats a little bigger.im just leaving mine and dealing with it.not a huge thing.

The painted mirrors make the car. The wheels don't hurt either.

Very nice, love those wheels. Sweet looking ride.

Looks awesome!!!! Good choice in wheels & tires. I have the same, except silver, & my centercaps do the same thing. Its not a big deal.The cobra parts set the car off....We need some outdoor, full shots asap...

 

[Mustang5L5]

That looks hot. Those mirrors do make the car. Shoot, i should try to pick some up for my silver GT

 

[2001StanGT]

as far as the centercaps go, would anyone recommend putting some adhesive silicon around where the caps snap in. Just enough to keep them from spinning but not too much to where you cant get them off when need be?

I heard a good idea on 1 of the threads on here that Ive been meaning to try, just been 2 lazy. One guy on here put a few layers of electrical tape around the edge of the centercaps to tighten them up when they snap into the rim. Im gonna try this soon.
