Got some new wheels... checkit

Well i had the opportunity to pick up these wheels for 300$ and they are in GREAT shape... i wasn't planning on getting wheels until after my swap but i couldn't pass it up...

some people might think cobra wheels on a 240 is a but the way i look at it is...

a: they were cheap
b: they are wide 17x8
c: they look damn good.

so if you don't like it then thats cool with me... but most people do

anyways check em out:

Those definately make the car look clean, looks sharp without looking bling bling.

Lots of people upgrade their rims to thos in KC, I definately like how they look, as long as you can hide any connection to ford. The only reason people can flame is because it's from a ford, but they are rims for god sakes, lol.

I like, wish I Had.
