Yep! That was it!

Hum? Don't think I could do that....

What size tires are you using? Suspension?

Do real men have to tell everyone else what real men do? Did I just include myself in that group? :P

Back are 255\17\45
Front are 225\17\40
Suspension is KYB with Eibach Pro

Actually digging these.. Anyone know specs?

17x8 +30. I have a set on my vert but the 245-45-17 tires rubbed pretty bad so I had to flare my fenders. Thinking about selling or repainting satin black or gunmetal.

looks really good, what year of stang are they from i've been looking around for some nice rims. are they 16" or 17"?

Think they come from a Mustang GT 98"

They look really good. How heavy are these wheels?

How much flaring was needed?

I didnt have to flare my wheel wells....

i thought they were 17x9?

Nope, 17x8. From '99+ GT models. I have 225/45/17 F and 245/45/17 R on the silvers and 235/45/17 all around on the pinks. I didn't need to flare the stock fenders, but I have heard of issues with 245s up front on stock diameter strut/coilspring combos. I'm running some KTS coilovers. I also have extended studs all around, I've also read some people were having issues with the front studs being a hair too short. Wheels are also fairly light for the size.

BTW RXTASY, I love you car. lol. Looks like you painted your front bearing dust caps?

Here's mine from the pics n specs thread. They have some curb damage. 17x9 cobra wheels, +26 offset. 235/45/17 F and 245/45/17 R. I have Ground Control coilovers, no way these will fit up front with stock springs.

Hey thanks! Yeah...the black makes the red really pop

I had some fit issues with stock-style struts. But I was trying to run 245s on the front and 275s in the rear. When I went to coil-overs the problem went away. Longer front studs were necessary and I did have the flare the fenders slightly

This is with 1998 Cobra rims, not the 99 GT. But they have identical dimensions.

AAnyone know if spacers are need for the front? And what's the best tire size that wont rub?

225/45/17 fit perfect. no spacer needed. idk if you remember when u saw my car, they fit nice without rubbing

I am running 235s up front on a set of Mach 1s and 275s out back with no big rubbing. Had to flare them a little though

I started with some Cobra R's but prefer the Bullit wheels instead:

235/45/17 all around.
