The only thing is I want those rims but right now i dont have the money. I didnt know if anyone had found them cheaper than 600 a set. I know that there are knockoffs of them made by ultra, eagle and a few other companies. Right now im looking for the best price. But thanks you guys for the help.

my method of getting these is ordering them one at a time and then swap the tires over to the new wheels

I got mine off of Ebay, like Shawn said. I payed $350, however shipping was $120, $14 (I believe) for insurance. They were from OE wheel distributers, I know they have alot of wheels on there for sale, soo look for there auctions if $350 is a good price for you...

Yeah I looked on ebay and that is probably my best bet at the present time and i found a really nice pair of O E for 400 powder coated black with a machined lip. I think they would look good on a maroon cougar. I just have to make sure i can make everything go through alright. Thanks for the help.

The thing is next week i start paying for my 2003 Escape. The Cougar goes to the shop for a new master cylinder, 02 sensor and the gas gauge fixed. Then it is going into the garage for some well deserved hard work. When i go to UTI im driving the escape but the coug is always on my mind. Once i finish school im repainting it. The repairs are a little sloppy up close. I want most of what i can get done accomplished because within the next few years i wanna make it to cat jam. Im gettin a 351 and rebuilding it and the 302. i just want to know what i can do to get what i want for the right price and no one will mess with my car. the last person who did i got in a fight with and he got suspended. long story short hes a jackass and this car isnt gonna be screwed up.
