I found em on craigslist for 200. bout a 2 hour drive to go get them but nice road trip. I do need a better jack the one I used is from my expedition. I never got a real one cause I dont have a garage and no real place to put one..

The wheels are nice.Whole new look for the car.How are the tires?Good shape? They have some nice hydraulic floor jacks that are in a carry case you can keep in the trunk.A jack like that on the side of the highway with trucks and more going by would freak me out.

the tires are good one of them are a little more worn than the others he must have loved his burn outs. Id say one is about 50% tread and the others about 85%. I dont get stuck on the side of the road all that often (knock on wood). I need to get another one because I dont have any in the cougar..

Looks good. Nice improvement. A little more sidewall or maybe lower it a bit and I think it can even look better. The wheel style goes nice with the body style.
