Love these wheels. The polished would look great against your paint.

Run them now!

westopher 05-29-2014 11:41 PM

I'll throw em on now. I can't decide if I want to sell the cups yet. I really like them, and they are rare as fuck/period correct. Might use them for track wheels as they are hella light, but I also really need a recaro speed/srd seat. Ahh decisions. If only I could just have more money I wouldn't have to make them.

Spotted your car parked last night. Throw on the LTW's, keep the cup's as race wheels. And get fat so you do't need a tight fitting seat. Bad suggestion? As an added bonus, fat people generally sweat a lot. Everyones experienced leather seats on a hot summer day while wearing shorts :p Sticky as F^&%

Your posts inspired me to get them! I need new tires but I wasn't sure which ones were good so I got pointed in the right direction.

Hmm, reminds me of my build that I finished a couple of weeks ago.

You'll love the Konis. Just remember that the rears can't be adjusted in car so you may want to consider adjusting them before installing them. Set it and forget it, so to speak.

Nope i didn't forget haha. At this point it all depends what kind of deals Ford puts on the remaining 2014's this summer. If they're incredible, I won't install the stuff i bought on my V6, i'll install on the GT when i buy it and have a great suspension upgrade day one! If the deals are meh i'll just install it and keep my car as a great daily, and look into a weekend in the next year or two.

I dunno man. I spent a week with. '13 GT full track pack with modified suspension, and I'd never give up my focus st for it. The mustang owner agreed whole heartedly, as well as his m3 autoxing friend who drove it as well.

Before you jump into another automatic mustang ( :p ) maybe try some different chassis first to make sure you really TRULY are in love with the mustang
