New Wheels *Pics*

[mob]

Finally ordered my skinnies to go along with my rear slicks. Not the same brand couldnt find them used so had to get them new, but im not putting on the center cap, and ill clean my back ones so itll be ok. Im going to order the tires for them today, hopfully have them redy by friday, and take them to the track next weekend. These weigh like 12lbs each compared to my 30lbs each cobra r's in the front. Hoping the 60' will go down the the front end will come up . We'll see, hope i feel atleast alittle difference. Heres the pics. Tell me what you guys think, and maybe how much ill shave off my et and 60'

before: (Ill get some after pics soon)

looks good

not sure on the 60' time, maybe a tenth if you launch hard? im definately not a track expert.

I agree.. at your power level, maybe a tenth you'll cut off your ET. Maybe. But it will look cool.

Take your fog light bracket out and disconnect your sway bar end links, that should let her rip.

Swaybar is gone, a/c is coming out soon, not sure about the fog lights.

Yea, once they ship ups will give me the tracking they're always right when they tell you the estimated arrival date. Theyll be on sunday at the latest, ill give them a test drive, and theyll be ready for the track not this friday but next friday.

Heres just a few more pics after i cleaned up my pacers. Im hoping they fit good without a spacer or anything, oh and what kind of lug nuts do i need? I know there like shank style or something, can i get them at discount auto? What size? And do i need a special wrench to get them on?

 

[Aaron'S'tang]

SST Lugs I would guess

 

[stang8urimport]

You need Weld lug nuts.. (they look like Welds). Should have got them when you got the wheels. let me give you some ideas since you're in Orlando. Call Wheel Pro's, or American Tire Distributor... both are in Orlando, both should have the lug nuts. If not, most of your local speed shops should have them (ie, Powered By Ford)

I needed a 1/4" spacer on my somewhat skinny fronts to clear the brake calipers, you probably will need one too.

**** **** just realised i ordered the wrong size tires, itll be about a week till i get my next paycheck to get some cheap tires and ill have them on.

 

[ExplodingGopher]

this is why they have things called phone numbers, call the company you ordered them from and let them know, see if they can help you out.

I guess you were trying to be funny? Summits website say they fit on the wheel but there is no way that big of a tire fits on a 3.5" wheel, it was my fault for being dumb and not paying attention, but i did call, they already shipped it out, i have to wait for it to get here, return it and wait a week or two to get my money back, thanks though. Ill just wait for my paycheck go to discount tire and get some 40 buck tires, should have done that from the begning but i was dumb

 

[ExplodingGopher]

i was trying lol, what size did you order?

 

[mob]

26x7.5 Someone told me to order them, and i didnt realise the size, and summit says they fit my wheel but im just dumb.

That would fit if there the 5" DL's.
