View Full Version : Budniks Arrived: Big Thanks to Tim & Bianca @ PRCC
I just opened two boxes and wanted to let everybody and those who got in on the GP that these wheels are awesome. I had originally ordered the GTX wheels in a different offset but Tim was nice enough to make a last minute change for me without hesitation. Bianca made sure my info was correct (about 3 times LOL) and two months later, Tim called to let me know my wheels had shipped. Today he emailed and left a message to see if everything was OK with my shipment.
How's that for service?
The wheels are 18x10 rear and 18x8 front with satin black centers and brushed lips. They should match up nicely with the color of the car.
They are going into my 71 Boss 351. The matching engine and trans are going on a custom cradle and the car is getting a six speed Richmond, ect. I am having a 650hp fuel injected aluminum Cleveland installed in the car as well.
The car is shown with the old wheels, it will soon be one helluva car!

Dam that is real nice and way cool to have and keep the original engine restored and displayed that way. What size tires are you going to run?

Jason R., I purchased the cradle off another guy who has a Boss 351. It is a custom made piece that is very heavy duty with rollers. It has Ford emblems and Boss 351 all around the tubing and under the clear coat.
Kevin, the tires I am going with are the BFG's KW NT's with 255/40/18 front and 295/35/18 rears. That puts me with 10.2 wide tread up front and 11.9 at the rear.
Thanks guys, she should be done before summer time. :cheers:

good design, and good finish. Good work not ordering the usual polished.
Well I got the wheels on the car and the 295's out back fit easily. Now I am trying to find 305's to see if I can swap them out.
Here are a few quick shots of the car..
