Looks good with them wheels..ive always liked those rims.....u shoulda painted the caliper black while u were in there...i just did mine and it looks so much better painted...
1/4 spacers on the front. beat duse caps in a little and that will bring the wheel flush with fender lip. im gonna keep by eye out. EVENTUALY ill come accross a deal on cobra brakes and snag them up. i just wasent paying 600 bucks for cobra brakes at this time. i only got one side down. ive worked on 3 other mustang today and after i got that side down i was like. im to tired to pick up another tire lol.
question for you. 245/45/17 dont rub AT ALL at full turn left or right. but the 245/50/16 on my dads rub realllly back. and he DONT have inner fenders. whats up with that?
Different height, spring rate, shock quality, side wall height, backspacing.... there are many factors why his rub and yours dont. So what? Is that the $300 LMR 5 lug conversion kit? The one that comes with new axle shafts and drums for the rar?
So lazy ass, when ya gonna do the rear? The fronts shouldnt of taken you more then 15-20 minutes
BTW, your tires are shot. I hope you have new ones cause your front end is gonna vibrate pretty bad. And if you push a Goodyear with bald edges in the corners it WILL blow up so be careful mang.

i know there shot lol. those are for the rear. down have the other 2 mounted yet. they will be burnt off becasue..thats what i do with old tires
then new ones. but since the car is pretty much parked. they can be bald lol.
You have spacer...he doesn't. Also the BS on the 16" vs 17" wheels is different. Your combos are nothing alike so you can't really compare.
Dude, when i did my Mark 7 rotor and Ranger drum 5-lug setup...i had the whole job done in 2 hours! Why are you lollygagging???

i did. but it still makes no sence how the oil got where it did. the knocking and ticking has went away. compression is back. gasket replaced. we will see what will happen.
