New wheels and tires...finally!

Quickshift_02GT · Feb 25, 2008

Finally put on the new wheels and tires after riding on the stock wagon wheels and HORRIBLE Mastercraft Avengers that were on the car when purchased.

Front wheels are 17x9.5 and the rears are 18x10.5, with Firestone Firehawk Wide Ovals at 265/40/17 front and 295/35/18 rear.

So far, really digging the new look. The tires are MUCH better than the last ones too. I've noticed the steering response is a lot better than the other tires. Can't wait for warmer weather to really test them out! Going to run them at the track soon as well.

Badass, that's a huge improvement. I love the FRC.

Now just get some 15% tint on their and it'll be insane!

Definitely getting the windows tinted within the next few months. What is the legal limit around here?

Nice, definitely accents the rest of the car. So, you were just out at the park to watch birds huh?....

35% in Washington. It's a secondary offense so rarely enforced unless you're really drawing attention to yourself it's not too much to worry about.

I have run 15% on 3 seperate Mustangs the last 5 years and have never had any issues. Additionally, I've been more worried about running a loud exhaust then dark tint.

Hey, you too. I only wish the short meet that we had wasn't ruined by the unexpected rain. I'm sure I'll see you soon, and feel free to give me a ring anytime if you guys are out and about or heading to PIR.

Yeah, definitely. It's been a hobby of mine for quite some time now.

Ah, I may have to look into 15% tint then. Works for me.

Although...I'm definitely screwed when it comes to the exhaust.

Those wheels on that car gave me a little stiffy when I looked at it. But don't tell anyone!

frcefedlx · Feb 26, 2008

Really made the car, and with tint that car would look downright evil mean.

NO WONDER! Friggin stater pulled me over one time for my tint and was "nice" and gave me a warning for my 20%. I wasn’t speeding or committing any other offense so no wonder. That constitutes as profiling or harassing!

Maybe your squeaky belt did 'ya in?

Turkey Sammich · Feb 26, 2008

Perhaps the squeaky belt was a noise violation
