I bought these off a great guy. Got a great deal on them. I then went to the local tire shop and had them switch the tires on the other wheels. So wheels, tires getting transferred. I have less then $300 in it. I like them a lot better then the factory but the car needs lowered a little I think to make it better.

Yea...Saleens don't look good on 05+. Body too big!

But they are in better condition than your stockers. Which looks like someone poured acid on them.

Much better than before. I know the Saleen wheels aren't as popular on the S197+ cars, but I actually think they look pretty decent on your car. Especially considering that you only spent $300.00 on them.

put the stockers up on CL and sell them, youll have $000 invested in the swap at that point. I see people asking $300-500 for those wheels (I was looking to put them on my Fusion as they look great on there for an OEM wheel option).

I don't know what happened to the factory wheels. The only thing I can come up with is that it is either dog or cat pee.

Looks good. Hold on to the old wheels and maybe re-finish them yourself some day.
