    felt like getting some pics of my stang an throwing them up on a website... its geocities but itll do for now. let me know what ya think... nothing else on the site yet, ill finish that later. after i took the pics today i cleaned up the engine compartment a little, taped up some wires and whatnot, so that is lookin better now.

    the shop its at is right next to a big quary so it is impossible to keep the dust off of it, ill wash it once i bring it home.

    later

    They are Sumitomo SRIXON4 225/55HR16, stock size for those wheels (according to tirerack.) I have a set on my toyota corolla GT-S and love them, so I got em for the stang too! They were a **** to get on though, took almost 100psi to get them to pop, apparently they have a lip on them to protect your wheels if you get a flat and it was getting hung up on the lip inside the wheel. I checked the revs per mile and it is about the same for these tires as it is for the stock 14's (around 810) didnt want to mess up my speedo reading!

    thanks for lookin guys! hopefully itll be ready to roll in a few days!

    Looks pretty good! I'd advise you to ditch those gay window guard things, I personally think they detract from any vehicle they're on. Otherwise, looks very nice. :nice:

    Looks good! I have to second ditching the vent visors, those things are are for soccer mom suv's. *lol*

    Looking under the hood, I'd say you need an intercooler so you can crank up the boost a bit more :D

    When your in the rain with no a/c and you can open the window half way without getting wet because they deflect the water away, you'll praise them.... I was so happy after getting a set on my truck, made all the difference.... :D
