I don't have chrome wheels. However, I do have a Mineral Grey mustang with FR500's. Car looks a bit different now ( No wing, darker tint, brake calipers are painted black, and the FRPP K springs finally settled). pics129.jpg - Image - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

I say gears. But, I am biased.

4.10's will definately put a smile on your face, that is for sure!

18*9 in the front with 265/35/18 Summitomo's. 18*10 in the rear with 285/35/18 Summitomo's. I also lowered the car with the FRPP K springs. There is more wheel gap with my setup than others who are running a 45 series tire. This is my setups only drawback. The space between the tire and...

Skip them. George from MGW does not recomend them. The trans has built in shift stops that are more than capable of handling missed shifts.

kooldawg6 nice pics, and nice times! BTW, I have the same "Ride the Pony" shirt.:nice:

I purchased a used 05, she was even a Katrina victim. And I have zero issues. She has 41,500 miles on her and going strong! Pro's to 05: 1. 3:55's on all manuals. 2. NoTPS Bands. 3. They are just better! J/K. Pro's to 06+ 1. Less miles. 2. Might still have warranty. 3. Newer...

Congrats you will not be dissappointed! MGW is the best by far!

I am tired of hearing about the evil, terrible, oil profiteering, economy trashing, George Bush! The man can barely talk, let alone affect our economy, or gas prices for that matter. I am also tired of hearing how the Evil Oil Companies are making so much money off of us. Most of Americans...

LOL, Mountain Dew just spewed out of my nose. Thank you! Amen. That is the truth!

homebrewer, see post. I am holding off on the cutting.... for now. The drop in the front was 1.1", which is a little more than 7/16". We are talking about almost half an inch here. Which in a suspension drop is a pretty significant amount!

It is definately the Shelby name! LOL.

Ha ha. Thanks bigcat! I think that we should do away with the word lanyards though, and just call them plastic strap thingies. It sounds much more technical! I did not mean that you should put a cover over the hood pins. I meant (in my ignorance) you should get the pins with the...

Good times, huh? I see that you have a Shelby GT. I just test drove one last weekend, and they are definately fun mustangs. That Hurst is really short! And there is very little throttle lag.

I don't think that hood pins will look bad with the look that you have going on. Are you getting the hood pins with the "plastic strap thingies"? (<-- Sorry don't know what they are called) I think those would look the best IMO. But, hey this is from a guy who is going to cut his springs...

They are 18" FR500's from American Muscle. Wheel and tire combo are as follows. Front: 18*9 tires: 265/35/18 Rear: 18*10 tires: 285/35/18 I am very pleased with them. Car now corners like a Viper! LOL

Just in case you guys did not see my earlier thread. Here is a picture of my car with everything installed. If you scroll through my album, you can see the before and after shots. http://s252.photobucket.com/albums/hh25/SOHC46/?action=view&current=pics126.jpg

I read on different forums where people have cut the springs on pro kits before. (Might need to go ask there huh?) I have explored other options, and cutting springs seems to be the most effective. Cutting the springs only envolves a ziz-wheel, and about 15-20 minutes, nothing more. Heating...

Yeah, I measured the car before and after. The exact amount of drop was 1.12" in the front and .98" in the rear. That is a little far from 1.5". I understand what you guys are saying about cutting the springs, and really I appreciate the concern. Not trying to be stubborn here, but I have...
