    Any thoughts or comments on how these would look on a Maverick.
    I can get these for about $400 with tread that is still 90%.

    Jamie: It's not my car, but I was painting my car the same color, which is why I had the picture saved. I believe it was Dodge Viper Red.

    I think they would look good. Although you might want to get different center caps or modify the ones to not look like mustang ones.:bouncy:
