Love it. What's the clearance like on the front wheels to the struts? Those are 19x10 +35 on the front right?

Thanks.
Yes it does, especially as I'd kinda like to sell them.

Taking a left into a small plaza parking lot.
A-hole chevy truck driver just had to pull up and block most of the ramp, I drove around it and just barely caught the curb at the end of the ramp.


It is what it is ... I will be putting my 18's on the car soon anyway since the NH Mustang Club Fall Dyno Day is coming up in less than a month and I want the lighter 18's on the car for that.
Might be a good time to give the wheel up for the repair then.

In all honesty I didn't measure since the rear wheels were my biggest concern and trying to find tires for them lol. From what I can remember there was a lot of clearance to the strut. I am going to measure them again to see what I can fit on there.

Hey you watch it. I almost bought those wheels
Thanks. They do look good and they're lighter than my 20's (naturally). NT-01's are nice and sticky when they get warm too.

Sanded the curbed section of the wheel, came out pretty darn good.
Now just need to find the right shade to spray it.
The before and after, so far:

Quickins the throttle response and takes the lag out ,being it throttle by wire it speeds the signal up,faster then your foot could ever do. The small wire in pic is my dash cam.

Took the green machine out today after supper. Felt great. Nice cool air for the car too.
It's been a while since I last drove it. (How does this manual shifting stuff work again?!?! lol )
