your car looks good. I love that hood and I have always been a big fan of the green.

Edit-- Is that green or black. I thought it was black at first.

Thanks for fixing the pic. It's forest green. It had just finished raining, and low light, so it looks black. Now I'll need to upgrade to larger rotors and calipers. It never ends.

Green Machine:

I was looking at your sig and noticed you're running the stock cam. What ratio rockers are you using? I'm considering a stock cam + AFR setup in the next year or so.
EDIT: Never mind. I did a search. Needed some caffiene to cure my laziness.

Cobra R's are still some of the most tasteful and good looking wheels out there for a Stang.

I'm using FMS 1.7 rockers, wanted to try to keep the stock cam yet still have an E-303 characteristics.

I purchased the FMS Cobra R's from GEF Racing for 148.95 each and the Nitto 555's were 146.00 each. The 255x45 are taller and ~ an 1" wider than the Dayton's 245x50x16 ZR's I original had, so they fill in the wheel well even better.

Any recomendations on 13" rotor and caliper upgrades ?

Thanks for the compliments on the rims.

Those Cobra R's look nice. If you don't mind me asking, how much did they run you? I eventually want to get a set of Cobra R's for my stang.

i know Cobra R's look kickass but you all need to remember there are a ****load of other wheels that you can get....that everyone else doesnt have.



Then again i used to be pretty original with my bullit wheels too.......

Here's some better pics

I purchased the FMS Cobra R's from Gene Evans Ford Racing for 148.95 each and the Nitto 555's were 146.00 each. $93 for shipping from Atlanta area to Lakeland Fla.

The Nitto 555's are quite, and they ride nice. I'm sure I'll get to try them out in the rain real soon with all the thunder boomers we're having.

Thanks again for the compliments. Dewman
