Mounted the meats today (chrome FR500's on a black stang)

Freakin love the zero fender gap now

Just need an adj. panhard bar to recenter the rear. It's off to the driver side by maybe 1/4 inch tops.

Edit: Forgot to say that the tires are 255/45 up front and 295/45 (28" tire height) out back.

Nice!! It does fill the fender well up nicely..I think a CDC chin spoiler would fill out the car more..imo...I like the rims too...Looks real good...What rims are those again?

I want the GT500 lookalike chin spoiler from Cervini I think it'll set the car off nicely and subtly.

I have the eibach sportlines on my car. I think it looks fantastic and I think they get a bad rap because of their significant drop. I think it is the best looking drop for these cars.

Nice. I couldn't go that low, though. My rear drag tires are even bigger than that. Pro-Kit is perfect for me.

Looks sweet for sure! I'd say add the CDC Classic, but I'm biased We have the same tires/sizes I love that combo for sure

If I wasn't going to put a blower on my car I was going to keep the stock tire height since I have 4.10's. But since I will have the 4.10's and a blower, I figured the 28" tall tire will help offset the lower gears.
