Suggestions: 18/19" Square setups with a lip

[GallopingFord]

Back in contact with CCW.

I can do a 18x10 and they will fit with less than 1 degree of camber or I can do the 18x10.5 and do around 2 degrees of camber to keep the top of the wheel at the fender. They can allow a BBK if the lip is a maximum of 1.5"

I cannot decide on the finish though.

Face color: Competition Grey, Hypersilver, or Satin Pewter

Lip color: Matching face, polished, or a brushed anodized.

Damn. Satin pewter with the polished lip would look badass IMHO..

 

[GallopingFord]

Yeah that would look pretty awesome..

 

[Jeffk]

Wow...serious Stang porn right there.

Yeah those would look killer on yours.

CCW emails back fast. The brembos won't fit without a spacer so I may need to do some deep thinking if I want to remove them in favor of these wheels since I want a 2-2.5" lip. all around.

 

[Jeffk]

That would be a tough call.

Yeah, that's why I just impulse bought new Shelby SS wheels they just re-released for a last time.

I ask my self how I manage to save money sometimes.

If youre gonna buy pay for the SS, fucking keep them! They are sooo sexy.

Too much bling for a Bullitt.

Gotta get a GT500 in order to put these bad boys to use.

 

[mikeyfitz]

Buy them and sell them to me at discounted price. You can have the drifts. lol

 

[Jeffk]

I love your logic...buy a very expensive car because you already have the wheels.

I'll think about it.

Am I the only one? lol

I bought the SS wheels. They only offer them in the Durabright finish. I do not think I will use them on my Bullitt though. I personally only think those wheels look good on the GT500 front end.

Still in talks with CCW. So far we have a came up with a 18x10.5 that does not clear BBK's only stockers and it is finished in satin pewter and I will do a polished lip if it all goes well.

Does anyone know what brake kit is either the same size as the stocker (caliper and rotor) that is upgraded? This is a hard decision.

You could always donate the Brembo's to someone...cough-cough...

Unfortunately (to you), Allie already has first dibs.

She called them immediately when I almost decided to trade the car in on a truck during the summer.

i don't have any empirical evidence, but from what i've observed, the stoptech and saleen calipers look like they're mounted further inboard. i know this because the offset of the brake rotor for stoptechs doesn't match the factory brembo rotor, but they are the same overall diameter (355mm). you may have better luck with those calipers. not all brake calipers are mounted in the same location

I was planning running a 315 all around but after doing research I found I may need the GR 315 kit, so I'm waiting to hear about that.

Kind of doubling back and looking at Jongbloed wheels now. A little bit of overkill, but I did find them for a good price.

You probably just need coilovers to fit 315s....I'm planning on 305s some camber and the extra room coils give should allow you to do it
