sounds awesome :D havent set up the electric part of the carb yet :D
Good! I have the Edlebrock 1406 carb, and the performer 2121 intake. It gave the car a lot more power! :nice: |

Yeah, I did that as well with mine. What are you going to go with? I went with the American Racing Chrome Torque Thrust D's in 205/60/R15 and BFG TA Radials. Really made the car stand out! :D

If you want bullitts I would recommend checking out www.oewheelsllc.com
They have good prices and I have yet to hear anything bad about them. You will have to email them about backspacing though since they only put offset on their site. |
I had 225 on at first, but they rubbed on the front fender. You would probably be ok with them in the back, but then you won't be able to rotate them. :bad:

Yeah, I didn't think they would be a problem. But since the guys at Discount Tire had told me that they would fit, they changed them out for the smaller size at no cost to me! :D
That's one of the advantages of going with a local place verus another place on the internet. Plus, the price was the same as any of the online tire stores that I checked. :nice: But, anyways I'm sure your Mustang is going to look really good with a new set of wheels. I like the stripe as well. :)

Are you going to get the whole car painted? :dunno:
That and new wheels/tires would really make it look good! :nice:

Could use everyones opinion on what they think look better for stripes...
Random pic found on google... http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t...hoodclosed.jpg My brothers car http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t...hnsmustang.jpg |
The top pic (small stripe gap). To me it looks more classic...
All depends on the look you're going for tho. |
