I have some suggestions if you don't have any ideas...

Deep Dish Bullitts


Foose Nitrous


American Racing Torq Thrust II


Konig Beyond


Which one would you prefer?

I vote for the deep-dish Bullitts. I love my OE Bullitts on my 05 GT Ragtop, especially with its Mineral Grey colour. I'd keep the colours close. Great car! (Sorry 'bout the Canadian spelling.)

$2000 to just smoke red?!? I think I will just get a signal grenade that color and drop it out the window.

I love the deep dish bullitts and hope they are an option next summer.

I can't wait to see the semi-finished result!!

(off topic) Who sells those Deep dish bulletts? I am making my Christmas list and need to total it up for the CINCHOUSE. She has been great on approving most things but to keep from getting burned I need to keep her informed of what else I want to do.

Yes the DDB are from Mustang Tuning. They are the the same (very close) to the stock color. They are aluminum. 18x9 18x10.

Azenis RT-615 are the best max performance tires on the market. They are a great price though I will be getting them for my street tires when the stock ones run out. UTGQ 200 (which I think should last generally around 12000 miles.)

The best road race tires seem to be a toss up between Kumho Ecsta V710 and Hoosier RS305. Their UTGQ is around 30-60

Nitto has the NT-01 and NT555R II Extremes both rated at 100UTGQ.
