IM ORDERING MY WHEELS THIS WEDNESDAY!

My bad,i looked at the pictures above and thought you wanted fr's.The wheel your getting is alot better looking.Good choice.

Now if i could just get someone to buy my old wheels.

You try craigs list?

Oh, you doing your tire pressure sensors also?

Did you get them on yet! I gotta see pics when your done.

I havent gotten them in yet. The wheels are still being shipped, last known place was in Hodgkins Illinois and its been like that since the 26th,
My front tires are being shipped and there in transit to Kansas city MO,
My rear tires havent been shipped yet, they were on back order.

I didnt get the TPMS, heck i didnt even buy lug nuts,

I'll try Craigslist as soon as i get my wheels off and availabe to give....(i just wont mention anything about the peeling on that wheel)

im not selling them any lower than $800, thats why i put up a starting price for a $1000

well my wheels and 2 tires are being shipped out for delivery!

still waiting on my rear tires to come in....cmon CJ ponyparts!

woot they came in!


now are valve stems pretty much universal and i can just go and pick some up at autozone and stuff?
can i reuse the lugnuts that i had on my 20s? and the TPMS that i have on there, do i need a new one or can i just reuse it

Lug nuts may work, just depends though. You can reuse your tire pressure sensors, but you will need 18 inch bands or universal bands, I think american muscle sells bands.

Money Saving. The factory mounting bands are not reusable Ford designed them to be one use only, so they can charge you $50.00 for a single replacement band. That's where the Universal Mustang TPMS Sensor Mounting Band and Bracket come into play, these bands can be reused when changing between different rims and come as a set of two for a fraction of the cost that Ford charges for a single band.

50 bucks for a single replacement band from ford? jeez

but i already have aftermarket wheels, and i know i got TPMS on them, just dont know if there universal or what.

Speaking of this device

If i just take the universal bands to you Leonard can you sync the sensors up with the computer or do i need that lil device i just linked.

Yea, urs could be universal on your 20 inch, but they could also be 20 inch band and those won't work on the 18's. I have the tool to train the sensors so you don't need that. Just get all your stuff together cause I know I am gonna have to do this! :)

it could possibly be this saturday, we'll see how fast i can get my universal tpms bands in. need to order those

Talk to Leonard... He's a douche bag as stated earlier and likes to be put in the wall during go karts, but he'll take care of you.

lol thats what im doing right now, im virtually talking to him right now :p

i ordered the TPMS universal bands for guranteed 1 day thingy. i want them in asap

oh and if you noticed leonard my wheels have that lil rubber protectant on the edge of the wheel, guess thats suppose to help you not scratch the wheel.

i wish you luck saturday

So I guess that means I am working this Saturday again???????? You know I am gonna have to dismount your old tires to get those sensors out, the tires are junk anyways, hope your not trying to sell tires with the rims? Btw, your front tires on those 20's are gonna majorly suck, your 20's are reverse mount rims and very low profile.

well i was selling the wheels with free tires on them...guess thats out the door lol

rears are down to 2/32nd and the fronts i know have way more than that

I have been told the universal bands will brake.I checked into this when i put my 20's on.Hope it's not true.

Well worst case scenario I will have to check the tire pressure once a week

I have the exact one she is using, work fine for me. They are all just one big ole hose clamp, they only break if you tighten them down to tight.

ok cool, well i ordered those universal ones last night for a 1 day guranteed, so should be here friday. i hope....

Well here is the bad news on my end, I checked the plastic puck thingy on our tire installer, someone broke it this morning cause it was fine yesterday. Talked to the manager, we are gonna get another one but don't know when it will be here. With this puck broke, I won't be able to do it unless you like scratched rims! :)

man that doesnt make me happy...grrr, ya need to bish slap the dude that broke it :p

lol you sure do have some clumbsy ones over there
1st someone knocks something over that put a dent in my car
now someone broke the plastic puck on the tire installer

I will get my wheels and tires on if its the last thing i do though!


woot 1700 posts

Can't wait to see the finished product. Should look great!

The one's who have had the bands brake actually drive there car's 20-25k miles a year.

I drove my car last year 25k

I suppose the new plastic thingy for the tire installer wont be in by Saturday will it?



Life must really not want me to put my wheels and tires on.

Don't know yet, we are suppose to have a extra somewhere but I can't find it yet. These things break about every 6 months, most people will keep using the broke one cause they don't know better. After i scratched 2-3 rims using a broke one, no more. Hopefully we will find the extra one.
