Pics Of My Car with New Wheels

hEaT · Apr 30, 2006

I got my tires mounted and wheels installed yesterday.

Skillful camera positioning hides ugly wheel gaps :lol:
They are less though. With the 16" wheels running 205/50/16's the wheel gap was 3.5", now its only 3 1/16" with the 215/45/17's.

Thanks to TireRack for the BFGoodrich G-Force Sports, Steve for the wheels, and Demonfire for torquing down my lugs since my wrench stopped at 75lbs/ft

Exhaust clip because the car was warm, the camera was out, and I was bored :thumbup:

nice, really takes your car to a different level :thumbup:

question tho, why'd u get the SVT borla?

Thanks.

I went with the SVT version because of the resonator so it's quieter than the regular Zetec version. I want to do a SVT header, high flow cat and 2.5" flex later down the line so this will all bolt up fine with the SVT exhaust. Once I do get the header, I was afraid it would be too loud without a resonator.

Good looking car. Those wheels work really well with that color.

Just a bit. :lol: :lol:

Easily solved by turning up the volume of the stereo.

never a fan of those wheels.

BUT, I am a fan of the multi-spoke genre

If Newedge doesn't change their prices I'm planning on going with the Koni Sport Kit. 1.6" drop all around.

Yeah, thanks. I wanted them when Steve had the one set for $88 each, but they went within 20minutes. It worked out for the better anyway.

Yea. There is so much stuff I want to do now that it's hard to decide what I want to do next. The last few things I've done have been all show and no go things so I want to do either suspension with the Koni kit or finish up the exhaust with the SVT header, 2.5" cat, and 2.5" flex.

If I don't do that, I would do STS and tint.
