So do these have any problems fitting on a stock height mustang?

@imboredadr

They should fit even better on a stock height Mustang since you wont have to worry about any rubbing most likely.

did you order em from cruizin concepts? im thinking about getting em for my car, but i dont want to get em if they chip real bad and the customer service blows

@kawimx919

Yeah I got them from Cruzin Concepts. Ive had them for about 3 years and I would say there are maybe 4 little spots where they are peeling but its only on the back. The fronts are perfect. It could it was a bad batch or maybe its the abuse of the Washington rain. Ive also read where other people have had similar problems with back chrome on different wheels so maybe its a black chrome thing.

@wasisnt gotcha. Did you run em during the winter? and I may just order from american muscle because their customer service seems to be way better. Best looking wheel though imo. Great looking car man

They saw plenty of rain. I try not to as much now that I have another car. If you get them from somewhere else check the offset compared to Cruzin Concepts. Mine stick out a tad too much and rub the inner fender on the drivers side when making a right turn going up a driveway. I got stiffer shocks which helped a lot but not 100%. If your car is not lowered it should be fine. Mine is dropped 1.5 inches. The brand CC sells are called Wheel Replicas.

Good, as of right now I'm stock height but plan to get it lowered some depending on how it's stance is after I replace the 16's with 18's

[kawimx919]

yeah, my cars lowered so I'll watch out for that. I have almost the same wheels on it now, just in hypercoated. They're pretty old though and the finish is coming apart. I have stiffer shocks on it, but I may look into getting the fenders rolled. Anyways, thanks so much man and happy cruisin

@ryleuty

My offset is pushing it on sticking out too far. I had to get stiffer shocks in the back because if I would make a right turn up a driveway the outside of the rear fender well would dig into the tire. Its pretty good now with the Bilstein HD shocks.

@wasisnt

I worked with my local discount tire. they matched the combo price on cruizin concepts and got me the nitto invos i wanted instead of N555s. they were ordered directly from the manufacturer, so not sure where exactly.

first set was the wrong offset and they stuck out too far!!! reordered with correct offset for my body style and expect delivery friday.
