I would like to know how much these weigh?

The 17x8.5 @26mm would be perfect for the front of my car. I would be down 100% as long as they don't weigh a ton like my 18x9 FR500's..... $500 is a fair price for me.

Yeah I will order a set in plain silver too. If I don't use them I will sell them off anyways...

 

[jw33]

This looks like the sizes we want. I am going on you knowledge here. As far as the deposit, we are so close to 30 sets that the deposit might be small. At any rate, I will pm him this info and ask what to do next. I am ready to do this deal, I hope everyone here is too. Once I post the info, we need to all respond back to this forum with the amount/date/method we paid. That way we all are covered here. Remember. ~$500 a set, so the deposit might be close to if not less then that. So, at any rate, use plastic, and don't be a jerk.

Again, these will be a satin finish, anyone who wants chrome will have to do it on there own, satin finish....

ready and waiting...

jeffo, I'm sure the 70.8mm centerbore will be fine.

Whatever you guys use for your Bullitt, 03 Cobra, FR500 replica wheels is what we would need on the 93 Cobra 5-lug replicas. -Thanks

x2 with 26mm+ BS instead of the 24mm.

STREETFIGHTER50, I think you misunderstood me. In my post I was ONLY refering to the centerbore that we all will need on these wheels.

As far as width goes, 8.5" is the ONLY option. Really the only option we do have is the offset and the two sizes that have been thrown out are +26mm & +29.5mm.

Alex, how we gonna decide which offset to go with? FYI the +29.5mm will stick out .14" further than the +26mm.

huh? Wouldn't a 29.5mm BS put the wheel further inside the fender well vs. a 26mm BS wheel? Or am I crazy?

regardless I'm still in. I have a full MM car and I need to tuck my front wheels back under my car after widening the track width with K-member/control arms/94-95 spindles. My 18x9 FR500 with 24mm BS are a little too wide unless I were to crank in a bunch of negative camber.

 

[jw33]

I'm still in for what ever tucks the wheel furthest inside the wheel-well.

 

[jw33]

You have it backwards.

that's what I was thinking from the beginning??? How could more BS possibly make the wheel stick outside the fender?? Bottom line: the greater the BS number the further it tucks the wheel under the car. So if you have aftermarket K-member, longer front control arms, and 94+ up spindles you would want the 29.5mm BS to keep the wheels from bulging out of the front fenders.

This is updated. Everyone else needs to chime in on offset. Remember 17 x8.5, 26mm or 29.5mm offset.

fixed...

 

[jw33]

Please folks, don't be gay. Go with the 29.5mm. Like MJS said you can fix the inside clearance issue by running a small spacer. You don't want them to end up stick out of the fenders in the front which they may if you use 96 and up spindles....
