WTB- Stock/Aftermarket 17's or 18's for S197...

  

pharmd2010 -> WTB- Stock/Aftermarket 17's or 18's for S197... (5/1/2008 6:58:45 PM)

I am now considering 17's or 18's, preferably bullitts, but I will consider anything for the right price. I plan on getting 20's later down the road, so I don't want to invest too much into wheels right now. I just have to get rid of the EXTREMELY hideous "premium" wheels that Ford decided to bless the S197 with (the 10 spoke 17's). They just HAVE to go. I would like to stay under $1000. Thanks, and show me what ya got!

Where are you located?  I have fanblades w/ tires I'm trying to sell.

Douglasville, Georgia. How much?

I was thinking $500 w/ tires and lug nuts/locks.  I'm in central florida.  2 of the tires are wore in the center but the outer tread is fine.  The other 2 tires have even wear.  (Don't ask me how that happened) lol

Not interested?

Hey man, sorry for the late response. I had family down for the weekend and I don't think I even turned my computer on at all (my fiance did though). Could I get some pics of them if you have any? How much tread life is left on them? The ones that's on my car now (the stockers) have a lot of tread left, so I really didn't want to buy a set of wheels/tires and have to immediately buy tires for them. How long were they on your car? Any problems with them, such as blemishes, curb rash, etc? Thanks a lot.

and btw, where are you in fl exactly? Just curious if coming to pick them up is practical. I am in school in Savannah, GA. Thanks.

Hey.  I am located in Central East Coast.  Melbourne area.  About 1.5 hours south of Daytona.  I will get some pictures for you either today or tomorrow.  They have 16000 miles on them.  Have never done a burn out because I'm to poor to buy new tires lol.  They is no curb rash. Some light scratch marks just from having 16000 miles.  Nothing major.  I'd say you could get atleast 5000 miles out of them.  The 2 with even tread probably more.  The good thing is, since the center is wore out on 2.  It will get wore down on the edges to be even.  I'm guessing Ford didn't fill them even on my 3000 mile maintence.  I had them rotated every 3000-5000 miles. 

pharmd2010 -> RE: WTB- Stock 18's on S197... (5/6/2008 11:15:45 AM)

Ok, they sound like what I'm looking for. I'll look forward to those pictures.

redfireshaker06 -> RE: WTB- Stock 18's on S197... (5/6/2008 2:14:32 PM)

Heres some pics, sorry they aren't so good. To much glare from the sun.  But you can get the idea.  Theres really only 3 marks that are noticeable and I took pics of those.  I hope you can tell from the pics the tread depth.  The film you see on the wheels is water smudges from when I just did a quick cleaning.

Ok, thanks a lot man. I'm going to keep them in mind. To be completely honest with you, I'm having a hard time figuring out what I want to do more right now, either lower the car, buy some wheels/tires, or do a CAI + tune! I wish I could do it all. I really wanted to do the wheels/tires and lowering it together, because if I only lower it, it's going to look stupid with these ugly wheels that are on it. But if I only buy the wheels/tires, then I'm going to want it lowered! Haha. I'll let you know if I decide to pull the trigger on these. Also, I would prefer the stock bullitts, but I can't find any at the moment. I just like the fanblades because they are 18's. That's a pretty good deal on them, and the tires don't look as bad as I was thinking they would. Thanks a lot though, and I will keep these in mind and let ya know!

redfireshaker06 -> RE: WTB- Stock 18's on S197... (5/7/2008 4:33:59 PM)

Thats a no, damn I got my hopes up.  Oh well.  Thanks for the interest anyways

pharmd2010 -> RE: WTB- Stock 18's on S197... (5/8/2008 6:39:47 AM)

Hey man, I didn't say no, just being honest with you. Wheels are actually on my top list of things to do, just don't know for 100% sure if I would rather have the fanblades or the bullitts. And I was thinking of the bullitts more also because $500 was a little more than i wanted to spend for STOCK wheels and tires. I'm sure I can pick up some bullitts a little cheaper, because eventually I will end up getting aftermarket wheels anyways, so I don't want to put too much into stock wheels. I just hate the ones that's on it now. If you sell them before I decide, then congrats. If I decide to take you up on yours, I'll let you know. Didn't mean to "get your hopes up". Take care.

hey i got 18" polished bullits.. check out some pics here http://www.mustangforums.com/m_5059504/mpage_1/key_/tm.htm#5065651
idk if you can call these STOCK even though they come from Ford as an option.. when you say stock bullits did you mean the ones that aren't polished?

pharmd2010 -> RE: WTB- Stock 18's on S197... (5/20/2008 12:15:44 PM)

Hey man, those are exactly what I was looking for. I sent you a PM. Thanks!
