16 Inch Rims

[BurnTire]

Anyone have any suggestion for 16" rims for ET Streets?
I want correct backspacing.
Thanks

I gotta tell you my pony rims with 26 X 11.5 X 16" ET streets do the job for me and they are cheap. Got mine from some nerd in Pittsburgh for $200 rims and almost new tires. Bolt 'em on for the track and you're good to go. May not be the prettiest wheels in the world but you can't beat the price for the exact same performance.

I never thought of that. I am looking for a nerd now.

Burntire, I've got a pretty set of black steelies in a 16X8 that had ET Streets on them. They look like new and fit the car great with that size tire.

They have a 4 1/2" backspacing.

You can have them free... just come by and pick them up!



I can put up a pic in the Photo Gallery of the '01 running on them.

Are the pony rims 8 or 9 inches wide?

Factory Ford "Pony" wheels are 16x7. Those are typically 4-lug fox body wheels, so I'm not sure which wheel BoneCrusher is referring to.

As a general rule, the V-8 Fox body cars had 7" wide wheels, the early Cobra's and SN95 GT's had 8" wide wheels, and the Terminators had 9" wide wheels.
