Saleen Wheels

jgreaves · December 30th, 2007, 10:44 PM

I really like and am thinkin about gettin some saleen wheels, but im not sure what size would be best. It is a lot harder to find 17 inch saleen wheels than it is 18, and i think they both look good, what are your opinions, 17 or 18?

GreenFaleen · December 30th, 2007, 10:54 PM

17 imo

xSxTxAxNxGx · December 30th, 2007, 10:55 PM

17 i personally think 18 is a teency weency bit overkill although both do look great, basicaly whatever your taste is man, oh and how old are you i recalled your parents wouldn't let you do performance mods

jgreaves · December 30th, 2007, 11:01 PM

thorpedo26 · December 30th, 2007, 11:25 PM

xSxTxAxNxGx · December 30th, 2007, 11:31 PM

wannabeimportkiller · December 30th, 2007, 11:39 PM

try ebay and then find the seller OEWHEELS thats where i got mine, you can probably find a good deal on tire and wheel package, and i will vouch for them they are pretty good, they forgot to send my a center cap, i called them and they sent it right out. so yeh thats another place.

thorpedo26 · December 30th, 2007, 11:43 PM
