FR12... Here we come! Boosted, Poked with a little bit of stretch (NEW PICS!!)

Was on the track to order up some CCW's this year... but a few things stood in my way. Money ofcourse is the main issue, but when these wheels came up locally for sale, i jumped at the chance! they still need some refinishing yet, but i am happy for what i have into them so far.

Here they are with some fresh meat, Falken 512 205/40R16. Size wise they were smaller then any 195 i could find, and the price was right!

Here they are on the car. At the same time i also put my black SVT skirts on to see how they looked.

Specs on the wheels (as im sure i will get 13 posts asking)

Borbet Type B
16"x7.5"
ET20

and ofcourse

205 40 16 falken 912's
Raceland coilovers
natural camber (no bolts, adjusters, plates or arms)


Now since this is my semi official/unofficial FR12 thread, here is whats happening this year...past what is visible ofcourse!


Refinish wheels - to be completed
Water Meth injection - have parts, need to install
RS knob - just put it on!
SVT pedals - just put it on!
Paint side skirts - to be completed
clean - a daily chore to only get worst the week i leave
RENEW MY PASSPORT!!! (hopefully this helps me stay on top of it :) )
take better pictures to post of new wheels and stance on car - coming soon

On top of that, there has been lots of other stuff i have done... since FR11 of course. If you remember the car you will figure it out im sure :p

The svt skirts flow so well with the lines of the car and especially if u have a sap. Seems like ford skipped the sides when doing the sap it always looked kindle something was missing lol
