A friend and I have both ordered from them in the past on other cars and they were good to deal with.

Thanks Mike

Just got the 18" Mach 1 knockoffs mounted. It's pouring rain so I can't go out and post pics of the entire car, but I'll go do a garage shot in a minute for you.

Last one. More when the sun shines and I can clean it all up. Think I need to lower everything though...

The c-stripe is a decal (see http://2005-mustang.com/z-2005_john_white.htm). The chin, spoiler, hood, rear spoiler and taillight area are all painted by a body shop.

Looking good . Decided to go with the knockoffs instead of the magnums eh?

I'm sporting the same wheels, no problems at all, check out the signature for a link.

I just won a set of their 18x9 black bullit wheels off ebay. I should have them by the end of the week. I'll post how everything turns out.

That's good to see. Now, do you feel lowering is required? For some reason, the gap from the top of the tire to the lip of the wheel well seems more pronounced to my eye. The Steedas only drop an inch, and most folks don't need caster/camber plates. Order my springs later today...

John, very nicely done car! IMO it is begging for a CDC shaker and then the package would be complete.

Thanks. I thought about the '70 boss look, but am sticking with the '69 Boss 302 theme for a bit. Want to spend some money under the hood making real horsepower. If the shaker provided more HP (<5HP, according to CDC) I might spring the cash. No denying it's one cooling looking accessory though. darn man, I'd already talked myself OUT of it. now you got me thinking again...

I've bought 6 sets of wheels now from AFS Wheels. I had a problem with one wheel (had too much run-out) and they exchanged it with no trouble - although I had to pay shipping to get it to them.

I'm debating the drop. If I do, I think I might just do the rear, the front looks good IMO.
