More to come tomorrow if the rain holds off...

 

 

looks like black or black chrome rims to me.

 

Can't ******* waittttt

 

REAL ******* mature... ******* jk

 

Evan got out the paint.

 

whats the brick for?

 

Ghetto parking brake

 

well, lets be fair since he lives in tennessee...hillbilly parking brake

 

Damn you.

 

LOL... No, my right rear parking brake cable is all wonky. It is binding for some reason and causing my right rear caliper to drag on the rotor. I had to disconnect it, so just for my own personal peace of mind I put a brick behind the tire just in case it somehow popped out of gear.

I love teaser threads... They're so much fun!

 

OK we'll give that one, now show the damn wheels and tires already

 

I'm liking what I see!

 

 

oh wow, well that definitely was not what I thought I was seeing/going to see. Looking forward to full car pics.

 

ME LIKE !!!!!

 

The new and improved breed of "oreo."









For those of you who haven't figured it out yet..

They're Black Chrome Deep Dish Cobra's. 17/9" Nitto NT555 255/45/17 and 17/10.5 Nitto NT555 315/35/17's.

Hands down some of the coolest wheels I've ever laid my eyes on, they're a different shade of Chrome/Black at every different angle, at night they look very dark, but during the day they're a really dark vibrant chrome. Very Cool.

Probably going to have to wait for the weekend to get any decent pictures, thanks to the damned tropical storms we have *** loads of rain coming down out here.

 

dude,, those are amazing.... my saleens look like garbage now...

 

Looks a lot better than I thought it would. Congrats on a great buy, dude...car looks great! Digging the badges too...the more I look at it the better they look. But I still think that the 99-04 GT badges were the best.

 

I reluctantly agree.


That is the best way to describe them that I've seen.

 

Nice

 

 

LOL! Thanks bud, I love 'em!

Awwwwww, poor Dave.. Sorry, but the FR's had to go!

I actually really fought hard with myself debating between Black Chrome FR's, Saleens or the DD Cobra's... Just ask Nick. In the long run I decided to go with the cobras because not only do fewer people have them, but they're just something different. Plus the Saleens have no dish and the rears are only 10" wide and the FR's are a major PITA to clean.

 

Yup. ^^^^

But just imagine how sick DD Saleens would be! It really is too bad that they don't make 'em.

 

looks great, you should lower the back of your car it looks kind of high.

 

You have no idea until you own them though

 

MEhhhhhhhh, Not really a fan of 03 Cobras over FR500s. They just look small.

And FR500s are not hard to clean, noobs. Haha

 

looks like you have spacers on the rear...it could just be the pictures though.

 

not my car anymore. But I think you downgraded. FR's were designed for the new edge body style...the angles in them...the angles in the car... they just go together so damn well.

what do you mean? He had FR500s.

 

Sorry Evan, not a fan.

I know everyone gets a woody and pitches tents over black chrome, but it fails to do anything for me. Maybe I'd have to see a set in person to really appreciate the finish. And also, to point out what Kevin said, the Cobra wheels really do look smaller compared to the FR500's.
