Let's See Those Wheels!!!

AeroCoupe · Oct 5, 2022

Searched and searched and believe it or not all the old wheel threads are gone or MIA. Reason for the post is I was looking to see if anyone has Enkei PF09's on a Fox Body and could not find them on one on any of the sites. My car started with some old school Centerlines back in 2000 when I bought the car. Buddy had them on his and wanted new ones so I got them for a good deal.

Crappy picture but it was all I could find they are so outdated:

Upgraded to five lug a couple years later via the Mark VII rotors and Ranger rear axles and went to the '97 Cobra wheels:

Changed over to the SN95 Cobra brakes and kept the Cobra wheels for a few years and then in 2012 I went to the Bullitt style wheels:

Then this year I decided it was time for a new set and settled on the Enkei PF09's. Ordered them in February and finally got them this past weekend:

Anyhow, post 'em up!

Some old pics of the project that's going nowhere fast.

Black Cobra anniversary wheels from LMR after:

I've been thinking of getting rid of them and going with something different. I'm not a fan of the all-black wheel and think I'd prefer if they were the anthracite with a silver/chrome lip. Of course that'll have to wait til I actually do something with the car.....

17x8 and 17x10.5 Bullitt Reps. Considering switching it up in the future though. Really like the 17” pony reps.

Ran these for about 15 years. I did my 5lug back in 2000 so these are what was available then

Tried out some bullitt wheels

Put some '98 Cobra wheels on. Liked it but these tires were old so i can't drive on them

Current wheel

Old school ROH's here. I ran the 16 inch Pony wheels before these. I do want to get a set of the 17 inch Pony wheels here at some point.

Anyone else find it tricky to upload pics?

I find it's easier on my laptop compared to trying to upload from my phone. I've been using my backup phone (Galaxy S6) for a couple weeks, my other phone got wet and went on the fritz. But my "good" phone (OnePlus 7 Pro) seemed to have issues too. It generally comes back stating that the files are too large.

Yep, it does.

The file size issue should be temporary. I think. @Noobz347

I take the pics on my phone and screengrab them, and then crop and post those captures instead. It knocks the file size down enoigh.

LILCBRA · Oct 6, 2022

I've been able to crop them a couple times, but that doesn't always work. If I post them on FB and save them to my laptop I don't have an issue sharing them here. I've not looked at the file sizes of any of them, I just know that that route works for me.

AeroCoupe · Oct 6, 2022

Open the picture in Paint, click on "resize" in "Image", in the resize part choose a percentage of the old image you want to knock it down to and then "save as" so you don't over write you original file. Anyhow, that is how I do it and it works really well.

I'm working on it still. The Big Guy is out of pocket and the switch has to made at the server level.
