Clean S197

[MartyParty]

Take a look at this sweet S197. Enkei's on a domestic? That is surprising. Even more so that it looks good...

o've always loved those rpf1's i want a set but they are expensive as hell.

[BondoSHO]

18lbs per wheel for an 18x9.5 is a great incentive to go with those wheels. They look great.

[MartyParty]

They are stupid light! That must be pretty sweet to drive!

[BISKIT]

I can think of another mustang running Enkei's.....

I ran some rpf1's for a tire set, I couldn't handle the way 6 spoke wheels look so I got rid of them, lol

Really? The look bothers you that much?

yeah, looked horrible on my coupe, I can't handle 5 lugs showing with 6 spokes, or 5 spokes with 4 lugs showing :rofl:

Wheels are so so on that car... The car itself.. well.. its just another Mustang with lowering springs. Nothing really special. I guess its clean, if you consider they washed it before the photos.. :D

Meh!! I like my Shelby wheels more :whoknows:

[MartyParty]

hahaha! Agreed, blind! The O.G. Saleen rims:

Yeah nothing special about this car. I just liked how different the rims were, without being ugly. I get tired of seeing the same thing, i.e. bullits and draglites. Both are great rims, but they are as common as the mustang itself.

I remember meeting a guy at Irwindale with those wheels on his 03 Cobra.... Looked really sexy!

Those are sweet, but nothing beats the 3-piece stern wheels. :drool:

My 17x8s Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2s weigh in at ~17lbs. My last wheels (MSR 190s in 17x7) were 19lbs, and the stock rims were 22lbs (16x6).

[RedRyder]

I was kinda just talking about saleen wheels specifically. CCW's are bad ass too.

My 15x9 weld s71 wheels weigh in at 14 pounds each. Don't have the front ones yet, but they will weigh around 11 pounds.

But they didn't have the offset to run big brakes like mine do :D


TD PR 1.2 (with 245/45/17 Falken FK452): I love these wheels. When you hit a curb, they take a chunk out of the curb. Not going to tell you how I know that:

MSR 190 (with 235/45/17 Nitto 555) : Looked good from the side, but they were cheaply made, and bent going slowly over a pothole:

And I actually don't have any photos of my original wheels.

I like the look of the 5 spoke wheels better, sean. they remind me of my steeda ultralites currently on my dad's 2001 v6.
