and mini tub that bitch

mikefheath87 · 02-18-2009, 07:32 PM

i was thinkin of maybe just some wider drag lites up front for the road. i need to do some head gaskets and get a tune if that blower is gonna stay put.

OG Killah · 02-18-2009, 08:01 PM

I think weld makes a 5 or 6" wheel for the front. Its a debateable topic if the 3.5's are safe to run up front. If it were me I would do a 5 lug 4 wheel disc swap and get some nice 17's. They would look better and the car would have decent brakes. But then thats me, I'd also be selling the blower and buying a Hellion or B&G turbo kit for it.

DevaROH · 02-18-2009, 08:55 PM

i've been running 15x3.5's up front for going on my third(?) season now. never had an issue with the small tire. i would like to run something a little wider when i take the car out and around town, but i get by and just drive safer.

only reason i dont get a bigger tire is cause i dont want to have to change them out at the track. and been doing fine with what i got

Nice ride Mike! What are your plans for it?

enjoying it during the good months and hopefully some fun at NED

still undecided about the blower and having a reliable and safe car......i would also like to keep my license.

mikefheath87 · 02-18-2009, 10:08 PM

what, no comments on my cap shed??

SVT1 · 02-18-2009, 11:12 PM

That car is nice. I saw that on Craigslist a little while back and thought it was awesome.

The 17" 10th anniversary Cobra wheels would look sweet.

You bringing that to the Mustangs Unlimited Show I hope?

Bigblock72camaro · 02-19-2009, 07:27 PM

Ok so why would one buy a car with a blower but then want to take the blower off?

BADASS383CIZ28 · 02-19-2009, 09:24 PM
