I recently got done putting some Eibach Sportlines on my 97 GT. I left all of the rear ISOs in and am running none up front. I spent all day cleaning up the car today. I think it turned out pretty nice. It is pretty much unmolested and all original. It is a high miler, at 129,000 miles, but in my opinion doesn't show it at all. Heres some pics

I have some black 18x9/10 FR500s coming in a few days. I will try them out and stick with either the 03s or the FR500s, depending on which ones I like better. Let me know what you guys think of the car!!!

Thanks guys!!! I'm free whenever you are! :D


Your car is so clean man, it looks like it just came from the factory! Btw is that a Hurst short throw shifter I spy?

Thanks! I wish it was a shifter, but it's just a spare knob I had laying around. That's one of the next things on my list. It's amazing to go from a stock shifter to the stiff clutch and my MGW in my coupe. The stock shifters SUCK!
 
sweet... reminds me of my car. I have the Eibach Pro-kit w/ no iso's up front and poly iso's in the rear.

Looks good man! If you want to know what FR500's look like check out my car :D
 
Thanks guys. Yea I can't see why Ford jacked these cars up as much as they did. It was hideous! The wheels are just 17x9s all around with 235/45/17 Nexen N3000s front, 275/40/17 N3000s out back with a 9/16'' spacer.
 
I'm on the edge of which wheel I like the best. I don't know what I like better!

I got the FR500s on a few days ago. I have been driving it a little bit since then and I do know one thing... I need to invest in some struts! The 130k milers aren't liking the Eibachs too much...
