I think if you got the last one and polished the lip that would be pretty bad ass looking for a budget wheel. I may be looking at that last one you have in the near future for a temporary wheel...

None of the above. Seriously. Go with deep dish Bullitts.

MikeROD16 · Jan 21, 2009

and how much are deep dish bullits? ALOT!!!!

Anything worth having, is worth paying for.

Holy smokes. I wouldn't put those wheels on a go cart. Junk and ugly. Spend the money and get real wheels. If you cant afford it then just wait.

MikeROD16 · Jan 21, 2009

i personally like them. my fav are the last ones. sure its not wat you normally see in a mach 1 but i dont think it would look half bad.

dude, seriously, if you cant afford nice **** for the car mebbe you shouldnt have bought a classic that needs a ground up resto

Am I missing something? These are all steel wheels which I remember seeing on pickup trucks back in the 90s? I'm sure you could find those on Craigslist for $50 for a set of 4. I agree, save the money and get something good. Granted wheels are easy to replace, but those are just cheap steel wheels, that look like cheap steel wheels!

Post up some pics of the car. Kinda hard to get a feel for it with the sig pic only.

While I agree that more expensive wheels would probably look better....I've seen some older Mustangs and other muscle cars that have steel wheels like that and they look pretty mean. Its not the modern look, but more of the old school type of look.

Telling him to buy more expensive wheels when he said he's on a budget isn't very productive.

focus grasshoppa, fix the things that need to be done like the 1/4's, interior, engine and all the other little stuff and when you have a driveable car then go looking for wheels. if you keep jumping around all over the place you will have a pile of stuff that will rot and turn to garbage b/c you wont have the money left over to actually fix what needs to be done. ask me how I know.

If you ever get rims for the mach, I would suggest you look at at set of 16" wheels. Just by going into the 16" size you open up so many more tire possibilities. A 15" rim really does not have many high performance tire options.

because its a ground up resto being done slowly lol.
and besides, im not considering buying them anytime soon. its just brainstorming. who knows, maybe i get a diff job and make alot more money and can afford better rims. who knows, like i said its brain storming. and besides i want an old school look.

stykthyn · Jan 22, 2009

throwing truck rims at a car is not an old school look

MikeROD16 · Jan 22, 2009

they arent truck rims. the aero's are nascar rims, some do look like truck rims but they look good

and here are the pics

MikeROD16 · Jan 22, 2009
