Can anyone photoshop them onto your car for you that would be the best way to tell.

Thanks for all the input fella's!! I'm gonna see if I can get a chop to get a better idea on how the wheels would look. For now I'm gonna get the springs and control arms / relocation brackets. Is there anything I'll need for the camber on the front. I've put 17,000 miles on the car in 1 year 7 months and the front tires are wearing perfectly so I don't want to mess that up. My car is just a grocery getter and I highly doubt it will ever see the track again after my last outing. My main goal is to enhance the appearance now that its got the sound I want.

Well I smoked an STI off the line missed third and with all the adrenaline tried again and hit 1st at somewhere around 70mph. Bent the third member deferential, lucky I didn't crash / blow motor / transmision.. That was the first time at the track with this car. I raced my previous Mustang (03 GT) for 3 years on nitrous and never broke one single part.

how are you going to let something like that stop you from the track? trust me, you will only shift into 1st instead of 3rd once haha

Yeah I'm sure I'll never do it again but thats because I'm not gonna be powershifting and pushing the car to the limits like that again. I've seen a ton of threads and a few vids where the same thing has happen to others. Some crashed, some blew motors, some broke trannys so I'm lucky in that aspect. It seems to me 1st should be locked out and that shouldn't happen but now that I know how easy it is to do it.. I'm done.

^ well that is probably the best Photoshop I have ever seen!

(not lovin' the wheels on your ride though, sorry)

But as I ALWAYS say.... who cares what we think, we don't own your car, you do
