MACH 1 wheel upgrade

[streetstang13]

I am trying to find a set of rims for the back of my mach 1 that will match the front as much as possible. I want the rim to be big enough for a drag radial. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks for your time

you can get a m/t drag radial on the stock 9 inch rims... what rims are on it now?

 

[streetstang13]

The stock rims are on the mach now. I was looking for something wider, but with the original look. I found g500 rims at american muscle which are pretty close. I just did not know if anyone makes an exact match with a wider base and possibly with a deep dish look. Thanks for the reply and any more info would be appreciated.

In this picture I am using my stock 17x8 in front and a AFS 17X9 rim in back with MT/ET streets

thank you for correcting me lol. thats what i was thinking of.. you need to post these on m1r unreal lol.. your is smexy and your very active over there

Get the 10.5's....

 

[streetstang13]

Where did you order the 10.5's from? Those look sick not to mention the extra traction.

 

[mach1]

those 10.5's weigh a ton. Rotational mass = :nono:

 

[cledusdtrucker]

am i the only one that sees the mud flap on the front of your mach???

 

[streetstang13]

That is a good point about the mass. What would you suggest for the wider look but keeping the weight down. I did not want to have to buy four new rims, so i was trying to keep the stock look.

 

[Unrealford]

Mud flaps FTW.LOL..the10.5 I use for DDing..I use smaller 9s for the track..I bought these 2 years ago, I think AFS was gonna remake them..

unfortunately there is nothing out there light weight that will resemble stock. All those after market wheels weigh a ton. I am spoiled with my BBS rims. They came with the car when I bought it. The rims and tires weigh 52 lbs and they are 18 x 10.5. Those after market rims have to weigh close to 60lbs with tires. if you do a search, someone had posted up what different models weigh. btw those big drag radials weigh like 32 lbs. Check their website.
You might try filling them with helium. lol

 

[streetstang13]

HAHA if the helium won't due it I may have to think of going with four new rims. I do like your style rims on the car. That was lucky to get the car with them on it. Thanks for the info, I appreciate it.
