Re: still shaking, need a wheel

Stock wheels are 8" wide. You need at least 8" wide to maintain handling. 7" wide wheels are meant for Hondas and Jettas.

Re: still shaking, need a wheel

i got mine off ebay for ~ 500 shipped...17x9, +25 offset. Just make sure the seller has plenty of feedback and that it's at least 98% positive. The only issue i have with them is that wheels weights dont like to stick for more than a month.

Aluminum tape is your friend. It has nothing to do with the wheels. The weights just dont like sticking to anything.

Re: still shaking, need a wheel

I bought my Villains used off of Ebay for less than $400 shipped WITH tires.

Something most people dont think about is searching for Mustang wheels. Thats how I found mine.
