off topic, but tunedin, how much of a PITA is it to keep your polished calipers clean? I just polished my cobra's and am just wondering how intense the up-keep would be

I think it's real easy but I only drive it about 300-500 miles per year. I got some wheel sealant from SMP and I put that on the calipers. That helps a lot b/c it allows the brake dust to just wipe off.

Those 500's look quite different than the real ones to me, but I do really like how they look on the car! I also agree with everyone else on lowering it..should look sick a little closer to the ground

Keep us posted if/when you lower it!

if those wheel were silver or white it would look way better the chrome is too flashy for that car, i saw them on a notch(white ones) and i thought it fit the car well, but that car also had a stance to back up the wheels

I think they look pretty clean. Car needs to be lowered a lil. I like em more cause they are different (i never saw em on a fox). I also did something a lil diff with my wheel choice. 18in 145/40. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2215033

Good job on going against the grain.

thanks for the pics. I used them to "add" them to my GT. IMO they work better with the GT's ground effects.

They only look good on the car that they were designed to be on in the first place, IMO. The fr500's are nice though.

love those saleens on the fox, I would love to get them but then i would have to get nice brakes cause it would look just silly with stock brakes BTW, I'm sorry to say but I'm not feeling the gt500 rims either.... but who cares what we think, it's your car

Honestly, they're not "deep" enough for my tastes.

When the center hub section sticks out further then the lip it just looks off.
