new tires - BFG GForce T/A KDW

[piss&vinegar]

I need to know the maximum size(18s) I can run on the rear of an 04 Cobra without dealing with the IRS bolt. If I remember correctly from the past it was a 295/35/18. If so, could I get a price quote for 2 295/35/18 and 2 275/35/18. I am going to run them on a FR500 rim. Do you know of a good place to purchase these rims since they are not sold by Discount Tire?

Thanks,
Dave

we can get the rims the store just needs to know where to look, i got mine and a set for a buddy from a vendor in katy, tx. you can fit a 335/35/18 on the rear

Not sure about max tire size on 18in rim but you can always add spacers if you need more clearance. Check out this site for FR500 rims. www.mustangtuning.com

we can get them cheaper

Who is that?

 

[grendel]

discount tire

 

[piss&vinegar]

So what is the price discount tire can get them for? Should I call Luke?

LUKE,
DTD phone system is messed up and keeps hanging up when I try your extension. I would like to get a price for tires and wheels.

 

[piss&vinegar]

Does the guy who runs this forum ever log on anymore?

 

[grendel]

doesnt seem like it and i dont want to quote our price because it will be a little different than dtd

 

[piss&vinegar]

Grendel,
Who makes the FR500 wheels? My local Discount Tire needs to know so they can order them for me. Basically, since you work there how do you order them?

Thanks,
P&V

shit i am already off of work, i will go check tommorow and post up the vendor #.

 

[piss&vinegar]

Thanks!

How about a pair of simple 245/35/17' KDW's?

 

[grendel]

the vendor # for the fr-500's is 21123

 

[piss&vinegar]

What is the vendor's name and how much do they charge for these rims? Please give me as much info as possible. Thanks for your help! The local Discount Tire called me and told me that I was looking at 200+ a wheel which I know cannot be right when they are cheaper on the internet.

 

[grendel]

i got my friend the 17's for like 100-110 a piece, tell them that you found them cheaper somewhere else and they should match the price. 200 sounds really high to me also

you dont need spacers on a 18 inch rim with a 295......
