I think they'll look alright... nice choice! Pretty damn unique, that's for sure! When I saw them in ur avatar earlier today, they looked like Porsche (style) rims to me.
Regardless, nice choice! I assume your putting them on asap as your car's not a daily driver? Get some pics of them on ur ride!

I gather that they are a lot wider than 7" wide by placement of that money on the money shot and the stretch of those mounted tires.

Those look great. I still have to see you car. I bet they will look excelent once all the tires are on and mounted on your SVT. What is the latest on your transmission? Has Ford gotten back to you yet?
We should hook up some time soon.

Well I took some pics of the rims on the car but you gotta love disposible cameras they couldn't get developed, and I don't have a digital camera. :angry:
The rims are 17"-8 front 17"-9 rear I'm going more towards a Euro look so thats why they are wide and with stretched rubber. I will post pics with them on my car soon as I get the car back from Ford. TSB work is being fixed :angry: SL8RZZX3: Im going back to the SVT springs so it should be fine with a little body work. :D My opinion I love the look B)

Tony, I have a digital camera if you want me to come by on the weekend and snap a few pic's. That is if you have your car back from Ford. I will be doing my Speedhut guage install on Saturday so I will be able to pop by afterwards if you want. Just let me know....

is there any advantage or disadvantage to these "stretched" tires besides it looking different. It just seems to me that, the rim is really exposed to the road and with our roads that's not a good thing.
I really like the style though and deep dish rims have always been a personal fave of mine.

I like them. I think you will be fine for rubbing issues. Im running on 18x8 with a 2" drop and have yet to run into problems.
I think the wider tires look super nice on the focus.  |
