Bill,

Whats up dude!!!! Hey, can you tell me where you got the 20" chrome replicas??? What tires did you use for them?? 40 series, 50 series???

Any info would be appreciated!!!!

 

Kyle,
I got them through Terry at Classic Motorsports, The phone number is (626) 857-7279 The chrome 20"s are $395.00 a piece and I used the Goodyear tires in a 295/40/20 series. It was a good set up and they did look great.
I hope this help's.... Bill

 

Bill,

Thanks for the info. This is my next mod!!!! As well as the 3/4 lowering kit!!! I wanted to do it when I first got her, but really didn't know what it would look like, but after I seen yours up close, I was hooked.

I haven't really mentioned anything yet, but I am officially done with racing!!

The 'ole pockets aren't that deep for the worries I have about breaking my truck. The tranny is slipping a little right now, and I don't want to make it worse, so now I am just concentrating on cosmetic mods and maybe some future go-fast goodies. I haven't broke the news to Jim yet, but I am sure he will know soon!!!

 

Hey Kyle, If you want to save some cash I am selling my set of 20" chrome lightning wheels with the goodyear 295-40-20 the same setup as HD had on his L. my set is like brand new with only 200 miles on them. I just sold my L the other day and it will be going next week. if you are interested email me at gebzatcountry@webtv.net Hey Bill how are you doing. later 95rcobra(Steve C.).

 

Kyle,
Sorry to hear that you are done with racing, maybe you should just take a break for the winter months and then come out strong in the spring. Once you have the racing bug it will be hard to get rid of it.
Kyle, you should really hook up with 95rcobra on his wheels, I'm sure he will sell them to you at a great savings and with only 200 miles on them, they are still brand new.

Steve,
I am doing good, I finished my last race in the 11's which was my goal for the year. I have some plans for my truck while it is up, It already has a new pair of shoes, the 22's are gone and I went back to 20's, Budnik Fat lip series, 20x8.5 in front and 20x10 for the rear. I put them on today to see how they look and all I can say is they look small compared to the 22's. I like them and everything but it will take a little time for me to get use to small wheels again. I have my stock 18's on for the winter storage and they look like 15's to me now.

Bill

 

Hey Bill, Thats great to hear. the best of luck with your 1/4 mile times. I know how you feel with the Large to small wheel syndrome. I am picking up a 2002 F250 super duty next week and the largest wheel you can get on them is a 16" wheel. after having the 20's I am in a state of shock with 16's but I figure they will be good winter wheels and I will look for some chrome 20'S in the spring. best of luck again. later 95rcobra.

 

Steve,
I will try to post a picture of the new wheels, If it works what do you think? How do you think it looks now, I will be lowering it about another inch and a half to fill up the wheel wells again.

Bill it looks schweet, whats the OD of the new tires?

 

Don,
The OD of the tires is 27.6" about an inch shorter than stock. When I lower the truck some more I think it will look pretty good.
Bill

 

Bill, I think the new wheels look great. what rubbers are you using on these wheels. I am like you in the fact that I get bored or tired of certain looks after a while. Its that ants in the pants syndrome. But I think its a great way to keep the mind occupied besides being alot of fun. keep on truckin! 95rcobra.

 

Steve,
I am glad you like them, some people will and some won't, it was the same when I bought the 22" KMC's.
They are Yokohama AVS Sports, 245/40/20's in the front and 275/35/20's in the rear.

Bill
