He didn't mind that one bit. If he had to drop one box off at every 3rd house or so... THEN he's be pissed. hehe

No more stupid badges.....

Swapped with rear deck lid panel with a blank from Ford Racing.

Now, if you're thinking of ordering this panel, there is a blemish in it. Where the badge would have gone, there is a spot where they spot welded it to the panels backer and it does show. Looks like a dime sized fish eye.

Need to call LMR on Monday. The lug nut kit wasn't in any of the packages. Says it was shipped, but no dice.

Can't wait to see the wheels on there. I ordered the same back panel for mine as well. I hated to clean around the gt emblem lol

Test fit them today before bringing the wheels and tires to get mounted / balanced. The TPMS sensor got here today so I dropped everything off to get done. I wont have the lug nuts until Weds though, so putting them on the car will have to wait until then.

These things are gonna look friggin' wicked when everything goes on....





Got about 3/4" from the wheel to the shock body. These are the 10" wide wheels...



Lots of room in the back. You could easily put an 11" wide wheel back there.

Someone had asked about the mounted weight of these wheels and tires..... 62.4 lbs @ 50 psi

I'll weigh the stock ones when I swap them out tomorrow.

So if we took the 50 lbs of air out the wheel and tire would only be 12.4 lbs?!? Now that is impressive

Hahaha

Needs some tire shine and you'll be good to go!

Well, technically, at STP 1 ft^3 of air is .08 lbs......

I threw in the 50 psi for the other engineer folks that would go....volume, temp, pressure, mol.....XXX lbs of air in those tires. lol

I can hear the calculators tapping now.....lbs to kg, F to K, psi to kPa, mols...... ;-)
