Pic request and tire question

ray1593 · October 3rd, 2011, 01:33 AM

Hey guys, I was wondering if someone could get me a picture of a silver 99-04 saleen mustang with black saleen rims, also a pic of a 99-04 saleen with fr500 rims. Im still new at cars and such and I plan on doing a lot of work on my mustang soon and just want to see what the product will come out like. Also im not sure what size tires to go with. I want 18x9 rims, Im not exactly sure what size would go good with a 1.5" drop, probably rear tires a little bit bigger than front but not a lot, if you guys could help me out that would be great thanks.

Couldn't find a saleen but found one with roush front bumper. RZNCAIN took care of the saleen wheels so here are the FR500's.

I vote this combo

sorry for the small pics, stole it from a craigslist ad

ray1593 · October 3rd, 2011, 11:58 PM

Thanks for the pics guys, anyone know what size tires I should go with?

MT0911 · October 4th, 2011, 09:24 AM

I would run 245 or 255 up front and 315 on the rear.

I currently have 275 up front and 315 on the rear. I will tell you that with 275 I rub on sharp turns. So don't go that big. I would stick with 245 or 255.

They are 295!

goren813 · October 4th, 2011, 10:47 AM

I run 18x9 front wheels with 245/40/18 tires. I wouldn't run any bigger than that up front. I added rack stops to limit the full turn, which has stopped my rubbing issues. Without them you'll rub at full turn. I'm running about a 1.5" drop as well.

265s on the front and a 285 out back thats about all youll get a 9" rim

ray1593 · October 5th, 2011, 11:17 PM

awesome thanks for the info guys

B's04gt · October 5th, 2011, 11:19 PM

I run 275's up front and dont rub at all..
