Woohoo! Finally have wheels on the car again!





They are 17x11 in the rear and 17x9 in the front, I'll take some better pictures of the actual rims later



some people on here dont like my car, if you dont o well, doesnt hurt my feelings everyone has their own taste. Yes I know the car looks beat up and ugly right now, I am currently finishing up the body work before paint.

Haha I was just posting pictures of how the car looks now with rims on it again, like I said I'll take some pictures of the actual rims later today.

For tires I was trying to stratch rear tires but actually only had them slightly stretched, I am running 275/40/17's in the rear and 245/40/17's in the front.

Lol yes, this would be the zip tie car haha.

MOARR are comin!!!

Are you just making a general statement or could you really tell from those pics that those are Mustang wheels?

Yes, right now the front bumper is held on with zip ties, and no it is not a "rattle can" paint job. I went to school for paint and body for 2 years and am ASC certified.. so dont start trying to play it off as I am a ricer, the car is a piece of **** etc. right now I am trying to finish the body work so I can paint it. No, they are not Mustang wheels, someone asked if they were I never said they were and no they are not.

Its all good, just noticed that none of the body kit fits, ***** burnt and bondo'ed. Put up some pics of the wheels. I would love to see the finished product as well.

Good Luck!
