I just picked up these rims for 700.. with Goodyear Eagle 245/45ZR17 tires, there from a 1999 Mustang GT, the rims have 60,000km on them...

was it a good deal?

 

no

 

for 700? Damn, that guy saw you coming. you got ripped man. sorry.

 

how much are they worth?

 

How good is the tread on the tires? If the tires are pretty new you could justify $350 for the tires and $350 for the rims or something like that....

 

the tires are brand new

 

If it was for 700 Canadian ($557 USD), you naysayers don't know ****.

Cheapest Goodyear Eagles on Tire Track in a 245/45-17 were ~$180/apiece.

Sounds like ya done good, son!

 

The only problem is the tires are 1" too tall....

 

actually they fit amazing except it rubs on my front mud guard, but easy fix, i was surprise i thaught for sure it would rub the fender or shock, but i misjuged it. they look really nice, considering i'm used to 15" rotary phone dial rims, "no pun intended".

 

I had those wheels on my FC at one time, they are pretty light for a 17x8 ( ~17lbs if I remember right). But that stock mustng tire size is too big for your car. Im really suprised they arent rubbing alot up front. I was using 255/40r17s out back and 235/40r17s in front. Usually just the wheels sell for ~$250-300 for a set.

 

Be carefull with them. I would expect you to cut them on the fenders if you get full suspension travel.

 

thanks for the info guys!

 

Not for the Mustang, it isn't.

 

whats the offset? Or should I say "Backspace"?

 

about 1/4 to 1/2 inch its tight, if thats what i think ur talking about.. i'm only 16, i dont know anything about tires.
