Looks great Jeff. Where did you get the spacers? Are there any issues with the wheels staying tight?

The spacers came from http://www.mustangwheelspacers.com/

They have longer studs with them so you have to remove the stock ones and install the extended ones. I got them from another Member who could not locate his install tool so we were using some Redneck Engineering with old lugnuts and a spacer. Made me really wish for an air compressor and an impact gun.

He had them on his car for a long time and even made trips between NC and MD with them on. One night his throttle stuck causing him to hit a curb with the front wheel... and it didn't do anything to the studs or the spacer!

So, I will check them for the first couple of days to make sure they're staying tight but I don't think there will be an issue.

Nice Mr. K, I like that look. I think you should go ahead and do the fronts.

Dang, they got my old car on their website, Craigslist and now Ebay. Can't blame them for trying can you.

p.s. I like the use of "alas", makes you seem all sophisticated and such.
