Default goodies on the way!!

ordered 17x9 95 cobra r wheels, gonna run a 235/40/17 up front and a 255/40/17 out back, sound good??? can i fit the 255 without removing quad shock???

also ordered a blue thunder short shifter, anyone like these???

that should be here next week!

i ordered a billet pistol grip shift ****, it is on back order will be here in 3 weeks, which sucks.. but will be cool to rip through the gears with!

well they are ford racing wheels, and they are silver.. i dont think chrome would look good on my car, 12 pc headlights includes weatherstripping, bulbs, and a couple other new thingys. plus 6 lenses..if you buy a 6 peice you have to reuse your factory crap and its usually no good.

i cant find decent priced tires tho

Sounds like a sweet list of goodies. Iv got the blu thunder shifter, gets the job done, youll be pleased. I also bought the 6 peice headlight kit, took a little bit of adjusting to get them to fit right, but they look great now. Im looking to buy some cobra r rims too , how much did you shell out for them..

i agree run 275/40/zr17 on rears,it is just a couple of bolts to
take off the quad shocks anyway,you wont like the pistol grip style
handle you will end up going back to a billet ball style.
