Default New Wheeeels

Future plan: black spokes and white lip! Was considering concave mesh wheels but I feel like everyone has them now so went with oldie but goodie. Deep dish!

Previously - 19" V6 PP wheels - 255s on 8.5 square setup


MRR GT5 - 8.5 and 10 - Toyo 255 and 285. Going 305 soon.

Ride looks sick!!! I wish I would have got some wheels with a lip. The stance is amazing. What setup are you running?

That's one sharp looking Mustang!
I really like the hood spear decals on the cowl hood.
Are they custom made?

H&R Super Sport springs. They claim 1.7" front and 2.4" rear, but it's slightly lower than that and my body kit makes it even lower.

Yeah, definitely. Got 3mm spacers, will throw them on and see. The rears needed 3mm spacers to clear the brakes. I can just about squeeze two credit cards in the clearance.

Roush grille.

Yup! Local shop that I've used for all my tint and striping.

I still do, but they might need to be powdercoated. The wheels have never hit a curb or anything but I feel Ford cheaped out on the finish. The spokes have tiny specks on them that I'm assuming from random road crap and if you even rub too hard with a microfiber cloth you will leave scratches. Still got the tires on them, two of which have nails in them (pluggable, just didn't bother). Tread is about 50%.
