I just purchased a 98 Saleen. It has a knock off type speedline on the front drivers wheel due to a blow out that thrashed the original wheel. The clearcoat has started to yellow on it. I want to put the right wheel back on the car.......but I can't find one, or even a set anywhere. I am new to the mustang world, but not th internet world. Are these wheels that rare? CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP? These are the silver NOT chrome wheels. I really appreciate it!
Unfortunately, Saleen no longer produces the 96-98 Speedline wheels. Your best bet is to look on ebay or check with Mark at Performance Autosport. Mark may have one or two.
A post made by Carlos on another board seems to indicate Saleen has plans/hopes of bringing these back...
quote:
I have been with Saleen for almost 10 years now and I am aware of the type of merchandise you all need and desire. With the store opening we will be going "back in time" and the oldie but goodie name "Speedlab" back. Speedlab is the name of our aftermarket division moving forward. We are placing a number of ads in all the magazines and should be hitting you all this month. Also, the store is now opened and we are moving forward with installations for all year mustangs. It is my job to work back. We will now have the 84-07 body kits available, 87-07 suspension kits, 94-07 engine upgrades ( if anyone would like the old style S351 all they need to do is call me) and I am also working on the older style wheels (Stern,Speedline, Magnesium and the older pony stlye wheels). This is something that we have all talked about but is now here and slowly coming back.
Believe it or not, Saleen does care about what the customer thinks and doesn't turn its head once the sale is made. This is why I am at the store and our team is working hard to bring all the fun and exciting items back!!!
Regards, Carlos

That is great to see. If anyone can do it , Carlos can!!!! Saleen is very lucky to still have Carlos There. By the way, they already do have the fox body kits available. They are good pcs!! All the molds have been redone.
No high-jacking allowed....just joking. We do not have any in stock at this time. Please let me know which ones you are interested in and I can get you a price. Thank you.
this site kicks a**. I really appreciate all the support Casey gave me today. I've been in the custom car world since I was 15 (I'm 28 now),,,,, people are such unhelpful pricks most the time. Its crazy to see how peaceful and helpful this site is.
I have a newfound love for the Mustang community.... I love it and appreciate it!

.....it sounds like you are looking for the Speedline Alloy wheels? Correct? If you are interested I have a set of Speedline Magnesium wheels for sale with the optional 10" rear option. I'll even through in the correct set of lug nuts for them as well. Unfortunately, I don't have the center caps for the wheels however if you already have an alloy set, those will work on the mag's. I'm selling them for $1500 before shipping and they are newly refinished in silver, just need to be mounted!!
....if interested, I also have a 94-98 Saleen Composite Heat Extracting Lightweight hood for sale. It's painted in Ford ZR Crystal White Clearcoat. $500 before shipping......

The only place that sells replacement lug nuts is Coast High Performance at www.coasthigh.com. They are not listed on there website though. You have to call. They were about $200 a set last tiem I ordered a set. They only come in stainless steel since the factory ones were brittle.
Thanks, I found them. Minor note S351R13, the link on your post has a period at the end as part of the url and doesn't directly link, but I used your info to find them...
...and thanks, Say When, I will also check with Joe at www.chicanesport.com....who knows maybe someone has a few laying around they want to sell...
