LOL, I freakin bought two packs of the Ford Racing lugs with the springs. I have cross threaded about 4 lugs doing tire swaps at the track.

Well, if you got those extra lug nuts it is now safe to say ----you are seriously over optioned and your modifications now are greater than the sum of your vehicle purchase. Congrats , you are a fellow sicko, and I bow down to you as I have not quite reached the 1/5th threshold, hence I am not worthy , oh Master Modder!!

Go forth a spend some more!!!

You car looks awesome!

I have some questions about those wheels. Did you have to change studs to use them? Did you have to use spacers? Where did you get the TPMS sensors? I assume you painted them yourself, or did they come painted black already?

I've been trying to find some relatively inexpensive 18" wheels for my 2013 Boss. Those would be perfect.

I was running these wheels with a set of 18x10 knock-offs from Crusin Concepts to fit the 295/35's out back but since I am running a square setup now I use the Ford Racing wheels pictured all around. Anyway the Ford 18x9.5 and the CC 18x9 do fit witout spacers, only the 18x10 used up from would need spacers, there is a thread here about that. All will fit with the factory studs, mine are changed out to the ARP racing studs since the factory ones will not hold up to constant wheels changes.

I painted mine flat black with high temp engine paint, they are just track rims so I did not care too much but they came out fine. Some people get them powder coated, more money but nicer finish. I did not bother putting the factory TPMS sensors in since it is just an idiot light in the dash anyway. When Chuck posted this setup on the forum I try them and really like the setup.
