So while my car was hibernating I amassed a nice little stockpile of goodies. I picked up a set of wheels/tires that were take-offs from a '12 GT500 SVTPP package. I also picked up a Brembo setup that were also Shelby take-offs. I installed Eibach Pro Kit lowering springs as well as a BMR adjustable panhard bar and JLT oil separator to round it off.

Now I just need to sell my California Special wheels to pay for some of this stuff!

 

Nice find on those Cobra cast offs. Very sinister looking ride.

 

very niceeeeeeee

those wheels always just look so good on these cars!

 

Thanks! It took me awhile to find a nice set at a decent price but the wait was worth it. It's prob my favorite mod so far.

 

Looks great!! Nice choice of wheel!

 

You can say that again !!!! OP, nice ride. What's the drop on those springs ?

 

Thanks guys! 1" in the front and 1.5" in the rear. I just installed them so they may settle a little more.

 

Yeah, that's what i figured, i used 1" FR springs and the rear is sitting half an inch to high. Does that mean that you're running 19" and 20" wheels !

 

Yes, 19's front and 20 rear. Having the 285 tires out back is nice. Only bad part is the replacement tire options are pretty limited for these wheels.

 

I have 19" s all around and 285's rear, 265's front. I would have to buy new 1.5 "springs just for the rear. That's a bummer.
Anyway's your stance is just perfect.

 

Great choice in wheels, your car looks great too

 

Looks great man - love the wheels. How's the ride quality with the new springs? Is this the kit you got (http://www.tirerack.com/suspension/s...ndard+Brakes)?

 

Thanks! The ride quality is pretty close to stock. A little stiffer but the improved handling makes up for it.

Yes that's the kit I got.

 

Love those wheels, i thought about getting those but wasn't sure how'd they look on YB. Where did you get the take off brakes and are the front and rear?

I missed a set on e bay from a guy that had a '12 GT500 converted to a Supersnake.

 

I got the brakes from the classifieds on S197forums. It's just the fronts as the rears are identical on all the Mustangs across the board. I've seen these wheels on a YB and I thought they looked awesome. The gunmetal really completes that color nicely.
