Just Picked Up My Winter Rims!

02'TrueBlue · October 19th, 2011, 06:21 PM

I just picked up this set of 4 1998 Mustang GT rims from a guy on craigslist for $40!! No cracks, a non severe bump in one of the lips, lots of curb rash, and a terrible finish. Oh, and 2 of the rims are missing the pony centercaps lol. I'm 99% sure these will fit over my cobra brakes, can someone verify that? Also, give me some ideas to paint these MF'ers because they're not going on my car looking like this even if it's to be my bad pair of rims lol.

I am not sure whether they will fit or not.. But rattle can them ASAP.

I've always dug that style for stockers. Damn good deal for 40.

of course they'll fit...17x8's...that and the inner lips the same size as the inner lip of a bullet wheel as far as height

@OP...if you do paint them don't do black...buy a can of gunmetal

I was thinking something more exciting than one color, Aside from the curb rash, i wanna bang the bend back into place and shine them up real nice better than factory. I was planning on hitting it with Black, then taping off the face and hitting the inner lips with a real bright silver to pop them out, but gunmetal might be sick too...I just want them to match my TB and idk how well gunmetal will do that
