justindewoody Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Just got the wheels in today. I can't get the tires mounted until Wednesday, so I just have a few pics of the wheels by themselves right now. I will post more when they are on the car...

6-Speed Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Nice! Of all the wheels I have seen, those are the only ones I have considered putting on my car. I hope they work out for you with the tires and all. What tire brand and size are you going with? Keep us posted on your experience with these wheels. I assume 10" on back and 9" for the fronts?

Yes, 20x10 in the back and 20x9 in the front. 255/35/ZR20 front and 285/30/ZR20 rear. Here's a picture of the tires...and by the way, I've had these tires before on a previous car and they are by far the best tires I have ever had, performance wise, looks wise, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they work out for you with the tires and all. What tire brand and size are you going with? Keep us posted on your experience with these wheels. I assume 10" on back and 9" for the fronts? Agreed...those are the only wheels I'd ever consider putting on my car other than the stock ones. (I'll be keeping the stock ones though) Yes, 20x10 in the back and 20x9 in the front. 255/35/ZR20 front and 285/30/ZR20 rear. Here's a picture of the tires...and by the way, I've had these tires before on a previous car and they are by far the best tires I have ever had, performance wise, looks wise, etc. I love the BF Goodrich G-force series. By far the best tires I've ever had too. I got the KDWS versions in the past. They lasted forever and performed all year around. Did the inserts come with those wheels? Or are they ones you got separately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justindewoody Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 I got everything installed today and the verdict is...NO RUBBING, NO PROBLEMS AT ALL!!!!!!!! If any of you are considering lowering your car and you want the Alcoas, there is nothing to worry about with the tire sizes I have. Everything works perfectly, and DAMN!!!! It looks so badass, you just can't believe it! The stance is perfect and wide. The tires are and wheels are more awesome and perfect on the car than I can express!!!! I'm SUPER PLEASED with the results. And they are hubcentric wheels, so they are perfectly balanced at all speeds without the need for hubcentric rings. Dude, I'm happy as a pig in poop!!!! Here's a few pics of the wheels up close, but they are crappy pics from in my garage and it's dark outside. I will take some better pics tomorrow in the daylight and post them for you guys to see. And yes, I know my car is dirty By the way, pictures just CANNOT do these wheels and tires justice. You really gotta see em in person to understand just how bad-to-the-bone they are... Also, the car is going to look reeeeeeeediculously awesome when I get my new brakes on there... :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justindewoody Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Listen guys, I CANNOT BELIEVE HOW PLEASED I AM WITH THESE WHEELS AND TIRES. I CANNOT UNDERSTATE JUST HOW AMAZING THEY MAKE THE CAR LOOK. I AM COMPLETELY FLOORED. AFTER ALL THE MODS I HAVE DONE TO THIS CAR, THIS...HANDS DOWN...IS THE VERY BEST MOD...PERIOD. I WOULD HIGHLY ENCOURAGE ANYONE WHO IS CONSIDERING THESE WHEELS AND TIRES TO GO FOR IT. THEY ARE THE BEST WHEELS YOU CAN GET FOR THIS CAR AND THE TIRES ARE BY FAR THE BEST ONES OUT THERE. I AM SPEECHLESS AND I COULD NOT BE ANY HAPPIER WITH MY CHOICES. DUDE, WORDS CANNOT EXPLAIN IT... MY CAR LOOKS AMAZING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentIan Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Justin, I must say, they do look great - indeed better than the 20" set you bought last month! I must have missed something, but what happened, why were you not happy with the last 20"s. BTW could you let me know where I can get one of those money trees that you've got growing in your back yard? Regards, Megan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second, I was NOT unhappy with the last set of wheels and tires, they just won't fit with my Baer brake upgrade that I'm doing. So, I decided to go with these. Next, you can get a money tree at Wal-Mart's Garden Center... :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burning Blue Star IV Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Just wait til the pics tomorrow. It will be lookin sweet... :happy feet: Great! Can't wait for more pics. BTW could you let me know where I can get one of those money trees that you've got growing in your back yard? I'm thinking the same thing. I wonder if I'm the only one just focused on paying off the car first (years and years from now) before I can even think about doing anything to it. Not that I want to do anything major. I even put the thought of some replacement speakers for my Shaker 500 on hold. Thanks Justin, I decided to come out of the closet!

They do it all except for programming the sensors. I plan on calling a buddy at Ford to see if he has a programmer...and if he can't do it, I'll go down to Discount Tires and get them to (I've already seen them program a club members wheels/tires to his car). If you are interested in getting these, at least give Mike at Cruzinconcepts a call and see what he can do for you. -Cameron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am very happy that everything worked out as well as it did, and judging from your side shot, I still find it hard to believe that I'd have issues with a 295/30/20...I guess I just won't understand until I get mine on the car.

SVTpower Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 It's been known since day one Alcoa's and 285/30s don't rub but take a look at your left rear quarter/tire photo, now if you were to get a wider tire, the wider tire has a wider section width and tread width and that's when the problems happen AND they will stick out past the fender line. Not knocking, looks good but the Alcoa/305's (for those that want it) has been dealt with in several posts. Drive safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justindewoody Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 I will have to say that SVTPower is correct. My tires are the LARGEST THAT YOU SHOULD GO WITH. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT PUT 305s on these wheels with a lowered car. But what I have works perfect with no issues AT ALL!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
