WTB: Silver Fr500s

**SlowSix** · 02-18-2013, 05:46 PM

Looking for a set of silver fr500s with the polished lip. Prefer staggered 17s. Might consider 18s.
I'd like them to be with tires but would consider ones without.

I'd also be willing to trade a set of oem satin finish 03/04 cobras w/ tires and maybe some cash depending on what you have.

pm for contact info

If you already didnt see them they are black with polished lip but they are like new with tires.

I saw those. Not sure how much I want to try to paint them. I don't like black wheels with a polished lip personally.

Go big! Order some brand new ones like I did! Haha..Well I bought deep dish bullits, 17x9, 17x10.5 :-D

You could get them plasti dip'd real reasonable and they dont even have to dismount the tires.

Not trying to spend quite that much on a brand new set.

I've used plastidip before. Doesn't come in silver, and I'm not a huge fan of the matte finish.

They price match. They also have a lot of good rates on other stuff as well. I bought my exhaust from them, they had the cheapest price on Magnaflow anywhere on the web.. Shoot them a message. They have a great customer service department. 90% of my parts come from them.

I'd really prefer 17s because tires for 18s are pretty expensive

If you plan on running 315's out back, I'll bet if you start comparing prices of 17's and 18's, they will be closer than you think. When I was looking at running 18's, 255's and 285's were going to be the cheapest route. And prices of those were comparable to prices of 275's and 315's for the 17 in wheels.

**SlowSix** · 04-23-2013, 10:57 PM

Probably would run 255/ 315 on 17s, 255/285 on 18s.

I have 275s on the front right now and they are too much tire for the front IMO.

They'll order just about anything you want. If you want 17" they can probably get them for you. They special ordered all of my parts for me even though they didn't have the ones I wanted in stock. Chris is who I usually deal with, hes an awesome dude. I had them get me NITTO's with 17" Bullitts and I only paid what AM had them for. But, I didn't have to pay sales tax, where as with AM i would have.. Muahahaha! That saved me some money.. Although I looked where they order their wheels from, OE WHEELS LLC, and they didn't have 17" listed on the site.. Cruizin Concepts shows that FR500 wheels brand new are only 5.00 difference lol.. I have a bookmarked site for good tires for good prices.. I'll update here in a minute when I go through and find it..

Actually I think Walmart had cheap prices on Nitto's to be honest lol.. Try Tire Rack, Discount Tire, etc.. Look at different brands.. Browse the MM Forums man, they had a bunch of useful information on tires just not that long ago.
