So, so you all know, (or all those that gave me a little help with it), I finally got my car sorted out with the PIP and the timing, (it was 180 degrees off
) so that turned out alright...car's running great, even better because i advanced my timing a little. (if anyone knows of any bad things reference advancing timing, let me know)
THEN....my buddy, who owns an 03 Cobra, decided to pick up a set of knock off Saleen Rims from wheelreplicas.com and decided he'd sell me his chrome 17 x 9's with rubber for super cheap. (1000 Canadian dollars, don't know the conversion...with only 1500 kms on the rolling stock itself.)
Here's the downside, there's only 3 tires....so what I plan on doing is using my brand new 255's that I have on the rear now, and putting them on the front...should 255/40/ZR17's fit on those rims okay and look alright on the front of my stang? If it's okay, this should leave me with a whole wack of spare tires, three 245's and a 275....plus my tribars for burnout duty.
Excellent deal as far as I'm concerned, since looking through MM&FF found me prices such as 275 US$ for the same rims. Sooooo.....I should be picking up the rims this week, I'll get some pics and say goodbye to the old Tribars!
Tell me what you think...
