17x9 +25/245-F, 17x9 +25/275-R...pics for fun

these aren't the wheels that are going on this car, just wanted to see how they fit, and what they looked like. they will be going on the mustang you see in the garage.

took some pics for the hell of it:







notice the original paint, and reflection in my un-buffed FC?

cant wait to polish that 80's paint! but first my car needs a clutch, and driveshaft. haha

I'm running similar offset wheels, only about 1mm farther than yours. 255/40/17 tires. Just rotated them the other day

Are those tires Sumitomo HTRz?

yes, they are Sumitomo HTRz's.

the owner of the mustang wanted cheap tires because he plans to go through them.

Roll the fenders, slam it, keep the wheels on that car. And of course, sell the 5.Slow

i understand.

the owner of the car was feeling sketchy enough just having his car in one of the pic's i posted.

he is very paranoid of thieves, and doesn't want his car, or info online.

^^^^^ The you should have just said only thing done is "agressive offset wheels with a tired stock engine....its actually pretty rough"...

Saying "the owner of the car was feeling sketchy enough just having his car in one of the pic's i posted" makes the car appear worth stealing.

If he gets one of the new tinfoil hats with a chin strap, he should be safe...

Nice looking wheels.
