I'll see if I can drum up a pic, there is an 01 WS6 up here with them, that's where I got the idea

is that a hotwheels emblem in the center cap?!?!?

they look good IMO...how wide can you get em?

If you can get them in 17x9.5/17x11 I would definitely get them. I like them, but just not on my car

looks like a old mustang wheel

Batman 02-10-2007 02:20 PM
These are 17X9's, but they are available in 18X9 for $160.00. And I would make new centerpieces...

i think they look ok but if your looking for a lipped wheel i like the ruff racing wheels the 278's especially also like the new ttm's in black .... im probably going with 18" y2k wheels on mine

lol i have those wheels for my 88 formula.. :nod:

NJSPEEDER 02-10-2007 05:51 PM
i think they will look cool on your car.

BonzoHansen 02-10-2007 06:52 PM
Not bad.

JL8Jeff 02-10-2007 06:56 PM
My first thought was "Mustang wheels" and then "Hotwheels". But the price is pretty decent.

After dropping $12K on a new engine and repair parts I amnot looking for a $1500 set of wheels. I am only considering it because the price is right.

And So you know the center cap comes chrome with blacked out hot wheel letters..i don`t mind that the wheels say that..its kinda nostalgic to me..just my :2cents:

qwikz28 02-10-2007 10:54 PM
what size were you planning on getting?

Batman 02-11-2007 05:59 AM
17X9 so I don't need to buy new tires yet. I also am not really a fan of big wheels. Biggest I think I would go is 18's

mc73nova 02-11-2007 08:34 AM
they're nice wheels ,even nicer at that price!

no, 17 is a good size. i was just seeing what width you were planning on running.... can i be honest and say i don't like them one bit?

ruff racing is 800 a set y2k's you can get for around 600 a set and ttms are around 700 a set....

Ehh.... I don't really care for black wheels. It seems everyone has them, and I don't really care for how they look on cars. Just my opinion though.
