Deep Dish 10th anniversary wheels installed!!!

EPIK · Mar 8, 2009

I know it's not a 4.6, but I thought I would share this with my friends over here in 4.6 talk....

I FINALLY got the deep dish 10th anniversary replicas mounted up on the Notch last night...

It was a long time coming, but well worth it. As u can see, I also did a 5 lug swap, Cobra brakes, Bilstein's, & 3.73's @ the same time... Huge thanks to Mitch, StreakMatt, Jerry, & Juan for all the help!!!

The wheels fit great, but I did have to remove the quad shocks, & massage the inner rear fender with a BFH. The Bilsteins improved the ride quality 100%, but out of everything though, the 3.73's impressed me the most... All I can say is OMFG, the car pulls hard now!!!! 1st gear traction is non existent now, & the car constantly stays in the power band!!!!

Here is my usual set of progress pics for those that didn't catch my thread in "5.0 Talk"...

3.73's & 5 lug axle install....

Old rusty 3.08 geared rear end & blown stock shocks on their maiden voyage...

Old vs. New....

freshly painted rear end with 3.73's & Bilstein's going in...

95 spindles, Cobra brakes, & Bilstein struts...

Thanks man... I kept the drum rears for budget reasons, but I will install rear disk within the next 6 months or so. I will be sticking with the small GT rear disk's though because I want to be able to run 15" slicks without grinding the rear calipers...

BlownStangGT · Mar 9, 2009

Looks Killer!!!!!!!! I almost got mad I thought you put them on your Mach without letting us know LOL. I was half tempted to look at them for my car, but then I keep telling myself I already have wheels

Awesome dood

Looks super clean on the car, not overstated - just like they should be on there.

Greenscobie86 · Mar 9, 2009

DAMN! I wanted these on my 96GT, but after seeing them on your Notch I gotta say that these wheels look better on Foxes.

Your car is insane! I want a notch soooo bad. Especially in white.

Perfect time to put these rims on. Just in time for summer..... Oh wait I forgot... You live in Cali where its always summer.

I have the Ford Racing ones on my 97 vert and I think It looks pretty good. With a drop I think it would look way better too.

the new edge for sure.. i mean nothing against the fox body cause its def. one of the cleanest around esp. with those new wheels.... but it would take alot of car to beat out the mach.... either way sick arse cars man
