Question what are some good places to buy wheels?

I know about tirerack.com and discounttiredirect.com...any others out there? not just web sites, either.

I highly doubt that. Talk to ARD T2 here on the forums. He has an FC so I'm pretty sure they have SOME wheels for the FC, even if they aren't on the website.

are you buying for strictly for looks or are you more concerned about sizes, weight and price? mustang wheels cant be beat when it comes to price and sizes (theyre pretty light too). 17x8, 9, 10.5 all in great offsets, with a small variety of styles.
check out mustangtuning.com in their wheel section.

mostly for looks. It'd be nice if they're light, too. The wheels that came on my car are 17x7 (i think) and i'd like to keep the tires. I just think black or dark silver or something would look better on a white car than the silver ones that came on the car. They are good wheels, i just want more wheel/car contrast.

Ultra, just call Rishie at AutoRND. Tell him the wheel style you like, the use of your car (i.e. street, track, autox, drag) and your budget. He will find wheels for you and ones that will fit your car perfectly.

Just seach this section for "Rishie" and you'll see what I mean.

Hi Rishie here. We have tons of wheels for FC. you have to click on the Wheels menu on the bottom left of the column. Can't look by application. That's where I'll be putting known fitment packages shortly. We're relocating right now so email is the best way.

sales@autornd.com

Thanks guys for the referral. You always got my back and i always got yours.

thanks, Rishie

For the most part yes. But we have several affordable options also.

Best bet is to email me sales@autornd.com./

Let me know your location, sizes you want, color, style of preference, any weight limits you might have, and most important BUDGET>

Peace, Rishie

if you get 17x8 mustang wheels all around you'll be able to keep your tires.
options for this size include any stock GT wheel from 95-04 (2 different styles, same size). bullitt wheels also come in 17x8 with a few different colors (to include black w/ polished lip).
ebay usually has them for around 500 a set, sometimes much cheaper.

those should look nice on a white car ^

You can also do EVO8 wheels if you want. That's a 17x8.0 They say Enkei on them. hehe.
