Another car with Fikses!
 
Well....

I had to get some Fikses on after seeing some really beautiful ZR-1's with them on.

FM5's with 3/8 in spacers on the front.

285 / 40 / 17 fronts

335 / 35 / 17 rears

Sweet! Now the a-molds are a little less common around here! :D

Are the wheels stock width? And what kind of tires did you go with?

Stock fronts and 11.5 rear. (17in)

Michelin Pilot Sports (discontinued I believe)

Very happy with the outcome!

Typical Ford. It's only a few years old and has holes in the seat's already.

Meh...they're alright....:blahblah:


And before I forget, thank you for all of your help with the spacers and such. I did get 1/4" and will try those first...hoping the wheels fit over the bigger brakes.

Yeah, I think they look really good too. The rears are huge 13" wheels. Those 335's still look stretched to fit 'em!

I like how the rear wheels move the spokes so far in. It frames the rear brakes a lot better, makes them look more substantial.

On the A-molds, they look so far back and so small, they seem pathetic.

Mike took some daytime shots of them:

Yea, that's the steam roller look for sure. I think that combo makes the car look way meaner from the rear.:thumbsup:
