    I think those three piece looking saleen reps would be nice. The problem is that I don't think monoblocks would look all that good. A wheel with a nice lip like you have now woud be the best

    Throwing my 0.02

    If I was going to stance my probe Id be trying 1552 Tarmacs or RPF1s

    3dsm sounds good, battles are meh, they make a "3 piece" saleen sc wheel if you like the OZ they are similar. Rotiform BLQ?

    Nice thing about probes is that there is so much new territory, not many people hav stanced them.

    Also Volk GT-P

    Are you trying to stay 5 spoke or mesh? Are you trying to drastically change the look or stay similar?

    I raise OZ Futura
    i like both options, all my wheels have been 5 spoke, i don't mind going with a meshy wheel to change it up lol. I'm kinda indifferent honestly. Futuras are my dream wheel but way out of my price range, id have to get a set that need rebuilding and i would be in them at least 2500.

    just looked at 3sdm 0.01"s they look nice, really concaved and come in great specs
    add MB battles in full polish to the list of wheel options

    So I'm trying to decide on my next set of wheels...the klutches are bent and the lug holes are all blown out so after fall import alliance they will be going in the scrap pile, or maybe sent off to be refurbished...who knows.

    Im not looking to spend a ton on new wheels, id like to stay 1500 or less, right now my options are rotiform NUE's (would do full polish on them) in 18x9.5, work Cr ultimates (white) in 18x9.5 or kick it old school and throw some cobra wheels back on it, but this time in 18x9 and prlly polished instead of black.

    im also open to suggestions, if u know of some cool wheels in that price range and with specs that are 18x9/9.5 with offsets in the 20's let me know!

    might add a poll in a week or so, wheels by the people!

    Man... super clean car!

    My first car was a 93 GT and have had love for them ever since. When that got totaled, I replaced it with a '95. I miss the sound of that motor and seeing all these pics of yours makes me want another one.


    Nice work!!!

    seriously man, amazinly well done car, and unlike everyone else I always knew these were a well designed car, but they're 90s crap standard setup almost hides it. A lot of tacky owners going at them did not help the rep either.



    I always remember a u.s. probe featured in fast car mag around 2004 (a u.k. mag) that was stanced very well even with a big fast n furious spoiler. the car was wine with the same wheels as yours with black centres.. a nice probe is always memorable because they are so few

    Thanks man! I think I know the car your talking about! It was my wallpaper on my original desktop computer haha!!

    so beyond done with this car at the moment...the trans/clutch has been a nightmare. the further i get into it the more i realaize that the previous owner did some things half way. half of the trans bolt holes were re tapped and done very poorly which resulted in more stripped holes once i took the bolts out. The intermediate shaft bolt holes were this way as well.. Once i got the trans up and in place is when i realized all this because the bolts wouldnt go in and tighten..

    I basically spent the whole day yesterday re tapping holes and buying bolts instead of putting everything back together. so fingers crossed today will go smooth and ill get it running and shifting correctly, wish me luck.

    Every time I see your car out on the road (I pass you every once in awhile on Bardstown) I almost never recognize it at first. lol I don't know, it just looks so much more exotic and not like a Ford Probe. lol
