i think he wanted it the other way around... the saleens onto the mineral grey stang. i think its gonna look nice.

Hey those are Cobra R rims not Saleen's.. I used to have the same ones..
yeah i noticed that after i made the post... just didnt bother to fix it.

i dont know if its just me, but your wheel wells look huge, Tim. i dont know if its cuz its lowered so ridiculously much or whatever, but they look huge.

Yeah I'm noticing that to now.. hmm.. I see alot of people around here with my year with 20's on them and they actually look like 18's.. I feel like mine look like 17's sometimes..

im not talkin about your wheels, im talk about the wheel wells. theyre so wide. it looks like you could fit a tractor wheel in those things.

Thanks a bunch man, keep fooling around with it if you want. I never considered tint or lowering it, but do what you want, I like it. I should get rid of my 4x4 look and lower it, after looking at these pics. Do you guys like the looks of those Cobra R's or nah?

theyre a lot better lookin than the power coated silver/white/whatever's

if they make em in 18s you gotta get em in 18.


PS dont lower it any more, it looks fine where its at now.

Well I just got new rubber, I dont want to have to buy new tires for 18 inch wheels, I'm fine with 17's.

And I haven't lowered my car yet, its still stock springs. You think it looks low already? Most people think stock GT's look like 4x4's haha. I see it.

id say lower it an inch or so, maybe a little more. itll make it sit better and make it handle better.

yea, I'm thinking Eibach pro kit, or H&R. That'll be like 1.5" or 2". I'm skeptical to drop it though, because I heard it messes up handling and alignment and other suspension things.... gotta look into that though.
