I'm running 17 x 8 Hopsters. My car has an oddball brake/offset combination, so I HAD to go custom backspace to get the 5-1/8" I needed. Was only ~$25 a wheel more.

md, don't you know that's the hot new custom look this year? haha. I do need to get wind up ones or something, they have about an extra 2 feet of length I don't need.
Dang, $25 extra per wheel, I was told it was about $50, otherwise I may have waited for the hopsters...but an extra 2 bills was more than I was willing to go since I was getting tt2's for $214 a piece.

well here's the new pic with the tt2's and the grab a trak suspension installed(and no seatbelt, sorry md). Still think the Hopsters were better, but too late now. I just can't wait to get it back from the alignment shop tomorrow morning to go on a full speed cruise, it felt like a different car driving it there this morning. Any recommendation for quieting the sound of the gravel etc flying up into the rear wheel well? I was thinking some rubberized undercoating because it's pretty loud at low speed before the engines running louder.

That would be my geekmobile, are you jealous? haha. Best thing about that job is that now I have another car to drive while I do work on my mustang. The bad side is, I hardly drive my mustang now, but the advantage is driving 30 miles each way to work it makes a huge difference with Cali gas prices(that's an extra $250 a month for mustang goodies!!).

INFO ON EAGLE ALLOYS 211 WITH SPINNERS

I have had a lot of inquiries on the wheels i have ,so here is the info.

The $160.00 price is From local Eagle Alloys Distributor but any one can order and get them shipped to all 48 states via UPS (Expensive) or USPS. For the spinners just email him and he will sell directly DEALSONWHEELS2@DIRECWAY.COM.

Now the center emblems are from a local Ford Dealer. They do not ship.If anyone is interested email me and i will give Ph. Num and address of the dealer/Distributor that has them along with the wheels.

Those are 11's in the rear!?!? If so congrats on the mean wide tire look, it looks sweet! I'd like to know how you did it, what offset etc.
