We are spoiled with Mustang wheels.

Try and go buy any factory wheel for any car. You'd pay $400+ for ONE WHEEL from the dealer. I nearly crapped a brick when i found out the price for one wheel for my sis's Lexus.

I curbed two of my Bullitt wheels, so the last time i got tires, i bought new wheels...and they were CHEAPER than the tires are $100 Each!

$270 for an OEM chrome 18" wheel is cheap.

Even with replicas we have it made. Go buy some ricer 18" wheels and you are looking at $300+ per wheel. We can go buy some for $150 or so.

We are lucky when it comes to wheels....tons to pick from and all dirt cheap!!


I'm still eyeing those Ford GT wheels though

I agree. 270 is NOT bad for a factory wheel. Most General Motor products have wheels that list at 500-700 bucks. Today, I sold an 06 STS 17" wheel with a gouge in it for 300 bucks. The lady said a new one was 718 and she couldn't find used anywhere but my place.

I was just comparing the 270 to all the other OEM wheels and replicas. We definatley have it made.

That's insane. It's crazy what wheels go for. They are all made in China, markup is rediculous.

My cousins father in law has something to do with a frieght company that ships those big 20-26" wheels here to the US. He said there is about $20 into each wheel...and they sell for $1,000's per set.

When I worked at a Chevy dealership I sold a new 2001 Vette to a guy with the magnesium wheels. He curbed one pulling out and went to go order a new one. We gave him a big discount and it was still $1200 for one 17" front wheel
