Stang got some new shoes!!! (56K make a sandwich)

[ScortLX]

I'm very excited. They went on last Wednesday I was waiting for the 18" hypercoated FR500's, but the were on infinite "hold" from the manufacturer and I went with the silver finish FR500's. I'm very happy with the results. Sorry Epik! I'll be doing a formal photo shoot as soon as I can find some time but I wanted to show everyone the ride. This is the first time its been shown on this site I think. Let me know what you think!

That changes the entire look of the car. It's got an all business stance going on that says "don't mess with me." I dig it!

VERY nice! And man I love those tires....always have. Just look a bit too pricey for my blood. WHat are they?

I only buy two types of tires.
A. Drag radials (since I gave up street racing 100% I have no need for them anymore)
B. The cheapest tires I can find for my rim (thus I just bought some 315 sumis )

10.5 inch rims make our cars look mean i love my 10.5 bullits they fill the wheel wells in real nice. they look awesome you should put a set of blizzak's on your stockers if you drive it year round i find they work good for me all winter in PA

I have silver FRs too! I love them, not too many people have silver.

Thanks everybody. I love them on the car. It really did change the whole way the car looks. Tires are BFG KDW2's and they look even better in person then I saw on here. Funny thing is, I may have put Blizzaks on the 10" rears, but while I was waiting five months for the backordered wheels, I had to replace the all seasons I had on the stock rims with kumhos. So now I have two sets of new tires that I can use on the car in the different seasons. There are no plans for it to see snow AT ALL if I have the choice though

Man those look bad ass!

Silver works great with your car.

 

[jayrw]

Wow that turned out great

 

[ScortLX]

I was actually suprised ay how well it rides now. I thought it would get noticeably worse, but it actually feels smoother. I'm not complaining for sure! Thanks for the compliments.

Those look great man! FR500's look nice on your ride--I personally like that finish with your color too!

 

[SonicStangGT]

Looks great, your car is very clean.

Looks great, your car is very clean.

Thanks Sonic. I'm trying to keep it as clean as possible so I'm glad its at least noticeable.

 

[Rookie71]

Looks great on the car. Any plans to lower it a little?

 

[fudleyd]

It certainly does look clean! Did you get that Porter Cable you were thinking about?

Well...the Steeda Sports have been ok so far. Front is where I kinda like it, so I think I'm going to remove the top isolator out of the rear. I scrape some speed bumps already with the X-pipe here in Colorado, so I really can't go too much lower since I drive the car pretty frequently. I was also thinking about putting H&R's on it to see if that helps it at all. Who knows

Yes...I ended up getting the PC that I was talking about and it quit on me two body panels into the polishing! I still have to call and get it fixed, just haven't had time.

 

[CatmanJJ]

Love the car mang.

 

[ACSPONY]

Wow! Looks 100x better, very mean
