They're the Downforce DF5s. Same ones LMR carries, but they're made by Wheel Replicas. 20x8.5/20x10 with 255/35/20 and 275/35/20 Nitto NT555 GT2s. Dying to get them on, but I can't fit a jack under the front end without driving up on some 2x6s and I have yet to start it up this year. lol

They look great, what are they?
Today I received my new Steeda adjustable rear spring perches and the new Steeda/Hypercoil rear coilover springs in a 200-lb rating.
Hope to have them on tomorrow.

I put about 50 miles on her after the install, and yes she's still filthy, I have YET to wash her ... lol
Car sits about a half inch higher in the back, it gained a nice stance that makes me drool every time I look at it, and it drives a bit firmer but certainly not annoying, it handles great and so far seems that the rubbing is gone.
I need to do a bit more "testing" and put a couple hundred miles on the new set-up and see how the springs settle before I call it done.
The new stance as of a few minutes after the install:

Taking it in to have the strut mounts replaced, lowered 1/4" on the springs, exhaust readjusted for fit in the rear. The KW's wore out the original strut mounts.

Well due to the supposed "Snowmageddon V2.0" that we were "supposed" to get (never did...) I didn't do any thing with the stang...(plug I also needed to drive the truck some to give it some love any ways) buuuuuuut I did pick this little gem up today so I just need to figure out the adapter situation for adapting it to the Mustang wheel shaft spline deal...(joy) so if anyone wants to help in this respect please do, as for the wheel cant wait to put it in and see how it looks
Even my dog Miller likes it!

Actually am thinking about starting her up this weekend and activating her insurance... 4.5 month hiatus. Although I'm not sure yet. Roads crappy, but 60 degrees this weekend.

I know. We may have great weather on Sunday. After beating the body up on Sunday at gym, I think I'll wash the truck.
I have a feeling Spring is coming sooner than later.
