I liked the black wheels on the red, but wanted something to break it up. I don't like how black wheels look against tires cuz the tire is always drier looking. Plus you loose the detail of the wheel most times.


I like the FRs on your car too, love the anthracite. I had those on my yellow '94 GT. Some unique wheels are what I originally wanted, just too costly right now.

Fair enough hahaha, especially true when looking at multi-piece wheels

Been busy with work and haven't been on here much lately. But I finally got around to putting on a new front lip and got the car tuned by Injected Engineering here in Kennesaw, Ga. I haven't really driven the car hard because I didn't trust the BAMA tune and I'm glad I didn't. He said the car was running about 14:1 AFR at WOT :eek: He didn't make a full pull but power was already falling off at 4500, only got like 260hp. He worked on it for about an hour and finally made some power pulls. So being somewhat heat soaked, it put down 306hp/326tq. I'm pretty damn happy with that!

Now that I fully trust the car, I took it on a roadtrip Saturday. Started here in Buford, Ga and went through Cleveland and Blairsville, Ga up to Murphy, NC and over to Tellico Plains, TN. Then cut back west to Chatsworth, Ga, through Ellijay and back to Buford, Ga. Was tons of fun and man this thing handles great with the Ridtech coilovers and Eibach sway bars. Found a couple cool spots to stop along the way. Now I need to clean her cuz man she's dirty.

Looks great. You were lucky to get those wheels on the car. They are super hard to find. I have 2 sets on 2/3 of my mach 1's. looks like you have black ones on now.
