New Wheels - a set on Flickr

New Pics.

Lowering Before and After - a set on Flickr

3/4 cut on Coupe springs for the front. 245/45-18 Nitto 555
s out front. 1/2 Cut coil on Rear. 305/35-18 Nitto DR out back.
Looks like it kept the factory 1" rake. Ride stiffer than stock vert.

[fordified]

Raining. As stated above.

I'm still out on these. I'd like to see them in 17's. For whatever reason, the 18's look a little funky to me.

Get this deal. Sold the originals with tires...$600. New ones to the door, $600. Zonk22 gave me a set of used DR's and also got me a deal to trade a set of my Yoko 17's for Nitto 18's at no cost. Selling the spacers. Leaving the deal with cash in pocket! Tough to beat that!

Do you like the original 10th's?

 

[o3SnakeBite]

I like.. I need some 18" Dr's but cant find any that are not over $550

Do you like the original 10th's?

Actually yes. My first Cobra was a Torch Red 10th anniversary coupe. Thus my handle

The replicas seem somehow different. I'm not quite sure how to explain it.

EDIT: I should say that I was dead set on a set of these in bronze for my 08 GT/CS However, after seeing pictures of the 18's I'm just not sure any longer.

So far the pics coming out haven't done the wheel justice.

I agree there is definitely something off about the replicas... They changed something I am unsure what it is though.. I mounted mine on the car and was not loving them.. Now I have seen them nice and clean and cruising by some storefronts with big glass windows where I can see the reflection and damn I am sold..lol

 

[fred50stang]

I think they look good.

If I had the extra $$ that would be a wheel I would consider...in a 17in and all chrome...cuz i a balla.

I can't wait to see pics of the whole car. From what I can tell antracite is the best looking color for the 18'' 10th's.

 

[kbsonicstang]

do you have the OEM ones on the front, if so i think that would look sick

I have 18's on the front. They are not the stock. Kinda wanted to go to 18's so eliminated the possibility of using the fronts only. I was told the colors would be a little off also.

I'll try and get some tomorrow if the weather cooperates. I am planning on putting in the new springs. I'll get some before and afters of that too.
