You're joking, right? American 200S are some of the most collectible vintage wheels out there and will remain that way for years to come. I doubt "fanblades" will do the same...

 

I really don't like fanblades. I like the bullitt rims.

 

The flowmasters I am getting have less than 500 miles on them and he is selling both of them to me for 40 + shipping.

 

what are fanblades?

 

Hey dude,

you got to be kidding. you don't know what fanblades are? are you new to mustangs or something? they are the best looking stock wheel fro the mustang. check it out

 

ahhh, ok. those are pretty nice looking rims. do they come stock?

 

hey dude,

where you been for the last 3 years? they come on the new ones. geez.

 

Yeah, LMan, they really let the "calapers" show through...

 

Hey, I'm a vintage guy. I don't know anything about the -197s and probably won't learn.

It's 1970 and earlier for me!

 

Fanblades are the 2nd cheapest rims for the GT. Best looking rim out for GT is Bullitts.

 

Ok. We have 1 side done on the drop. The other side is being done tomorrow. I thought the shelby "drop" was supposed to drop the car. Not drop just the UCA and move the whole front end up 1". Because now my car sits up 1 inch higher than before. But we also replaced the shock with a new 1.

 

it actually just changes the position of the upper control arm, you know dropping it down 1 inch, but it does not lower the car at all ! it is more of a performance enhancing mod than looks

 

It didn't lower my car it raised it. Hopefully it will level out once we do the other side. If not we just wasted time. Then I will have to get new absorbers for the rear and get the leaf springs rebent(if I feel like having this done).

 

have fun with that i think they already told you it wouldnt drop it lol

 

Victory!!! We finished the drop around 5:30 or so. The front measured 27 inches high from the middle of the fender arc. Well after we took it for a spin around the neighborhood I noticed a difference. Went and got the Tape measure and the front end now measures 25 inches high!!!

Front- 25in.
Rear- 25 1/2 in.


We might replace the rear shocks not sure yet. Post new pics tomorrow after I get off work.

 

Well we find out tomorrow if the mustang is getting new rims. The auction we are watching ends at 1:23. Right now it looks like they will stay at $50.

 

:Have fun with that, now i need new rims according to Checkers.

 

They are idiots then.

 

no actually those lug nuts are just a temporary fix

 

Your rims will cost you about 200+ depending on what you get. That isn't counting tires. Most of the time it is 350+. Just have to find the right place.
