ShoBoat Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Thought I would share a pic of my SHO with the snow tires on it in case anyone was interested. The package was reasonable complete with TPMS and all. The tires are 235 55 18's Blizakks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IowaFoSho Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 That looks great. Did the dealership wrap the rubber, or did you have to solicit a tire shop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BombshellSteph Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Looks nice. Not too bad on price either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TractorAK Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Especially since the dealer quoted me $385 a rim for steelies!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tss Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 That looks phenomenal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash712us Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Looks good! thats how I'd do it if I needed snows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tss Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 I have no clue what to do if I decide I need snows. If I had an SHO, I would go with the Interceptor look for sure. But what about an MKS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoushF150 Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Sorry but that does not work for me. Not a fan of the "Taxi Pack" look. I put the Bizzaks on my factory wheels and did a nice wheel for the summer. Car looks great all year long that way. You may like that look and power to you. Enjoy the ride!!

tss Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 ^^ Yeah, but I think going down to 18s are part of the game plan, at least it is for me. If you have 19s stockers , that makes some sense, but I don't want to expend energy putting snows on my 20s, I would rather just buy inexpensive dedicated smaller rims.

Lots of salt on the roads. I used the 20's on my Mark LT in the winter and they were toast by the spring. Pitted all to hell. Worst case I sand these down and put a coat of black paint on them. But to each his own. It's funny this morning on the expressway I had a few cars not wanting to pass me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't go trying to pull anybody over now. I hear the Police don't take kindly to being impersonated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoBoat Posted November 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 ^^ ya I don't think ill be doing that anytime soon..... Interesting though, today I ran across a white taurus with the same wheels on it with a dealer plate on it. Possible going to our local station. I know that Ford is aggressively marketing these.

HokieSHO Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 So the 18" steelies will fit the '13 SHO with PP? Interesting. I'd be interested in getting some but thought they would be cheaper (considering I can get a snow tire and wheel package in the $1600-1700 range from Discount Tire Direct and have some decent looking 19" aluminum rims).

kuruption Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 What model blizzaks are those? Tirerack is now showing a blizzak/wheel 18" combo for just under $1200, but the model is DM-V1 which seem to be categorized as a light truck / suv tire.

ShoBoat Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 ^^ yup those are the ones I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MNRubyRed2013 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Do you happen to have the part numbers for the wheels and wheel covers? That is the same package I've been thinking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
