Would anyone actually buy a 5-lug 17" 10-hole? I've heard people saying they would buy them for years....but somehow I doubt that.

I made a post about it a while back. I thought a slightly redesigned 18in 10 hole would make good for turning my car back into a factory look lx. The idea wasn't exactly met with enthusiasm if I remember correctly, lol.
Even local friends and family hated the idea. So when I get it painted (more like if), I'd like to at least lose the hood (which is also not popular)

So would people buy them? I think so. Enough to make them profitable? Not sure about that...

These are the originals, although I think American Racing made them for Saleen.

grey is not that bad looking, and they even have 5-lug. Only 15” though and none in mustang bolt pattern

I wonder if they use a standard 5x114.3 pattern?

No official word on the Bronco Sport's 5-lug pattern, but the other 2 models are running the 6-lug pattern that is likely identical to the ranger's 6 x 5.5".

Somewhere, I have an image of a wheel that I can only describe as being like a 'GM 10-hole'. The GM part is only a vague recollection though. I'm certain I saved a copy of it somewhere. Still looking for it.

Seems like it was a repro of a GM wheel or something. Like all our fake Cobra wheels.

I'll re-find it eventually.

I had a set back in the day on a 86 which looked good.. always hated they were only 15x7 size so if I still had a four eye car I'd go with these but any fox I have or end up with gets five lug swapped anyways so these don't work for me. Plus next wheel for me will be bbs rk wheels

Happy they produced another 4 lug option but wouldn't be my first choice.
Funny, I was just thinking what would gold wheels look like on my Fox, seem so popular with the
import crowd now.

There are some great looking cars with gold/bronze wheels but I think for the fox body, it has to be an exceptional wheel that fits the rest of the car to really pull it off. Can’t remember whose thread I pulled this from but these could look great on a fox.


The new SVE mesh wheels..I think they look ok but it seems like they are a better fit on the four eyed fox cars than the aero. I could be convinced otherwise though.
