New wheels

Turkey Sammich · Nov 20, 2006

It was making me sick, putting so much time into this Stang and having it roll on low budget wheels. So, I order Cobra R's last week and they finally arrived.

Before...

After....

*I'll have better photo's up tomorrow for those that are interested. All I had was my camera phone. I have 205/55R-16 Zexius tires on right now, but want opinions on what I should put on instead. Keeping in mind I live in the NW and this is rain central. Thanks

205s!!! wow get some meat on those.

IMO, the wheels you had before didn't look too bad? Can't dog the Cobras tho... I got a set!

245/45's. Yokohama Avid H4S's. That's what I have, great traction, pretty cheap, and great water traction (Southwest Florida, I understand your "rain" pain).

How much does a set run you back?

91ghp5.0 · Nov 21, 2006

i think i paid around 105 or so per tire. tire rack has 225's for 83. you want something thicker though. i would say 245 at the minimum.

go on tire rack and play around with their "find tires by size" option. i put in 245/45/16 and came up with a few good options.

Yokohama AVS ES 100's for 98.

Bridgestone Potenza RE750's for 126.

I like your Low Budget Wheels better, Sorry.

I took a better photo this morning....

I hated the other wheels, and they were all ****ed up. These are much nicer.

I'll remember that tomorrow, when I'm driving down the road, and listening to the sweet sound of 5.0.

another stang bites the dust to Cobra R's, looks good but I'm not a huge fan of 16 inch cobras.

grey5.0beast · Nov 22, 2006

or 17" cobras for that matter

NKau · Nov 22, 2006

Not to be an ass, but I liked the primes better. 16" cobra r's don't do it for me. As long as you like them, don't worry about it.

91ghp5.0 · Nov 22, 2006

I have 17's, the '98 versions, and i love 'em. my favorites are FR500's though.

Jaswir · Nov 22, 2006

looks better, but i would of atleast got 17's! yeah i agree put some more meat on those rims get atleast 245's

rigamaroles · Nov 22, 2006

I love white 5oh's, but I liked the look of the first wheels still looks pretty good though.

Mikie · Nov 22, 2006

Its all what you like brotha,
