Default New wheels and stuff. (56k fails)

I accidentally posted as Mr. Zip cause I'm on his computer. I got his wheels that used to be on his mustang for christmas. I also got a shorty antenna, and spacers for the back wheels will be coming soon. Now that Mr. Zip sold his car he is going to focus all of his attention on mine lol

Looks great! Lower it, get a grille delete and you'll be set!

Yeah I love the way it performs and looks by lowering it but I do not want to scrape everywhere. I will be getting wheel spacers first and then I will be getting the delete. Those things are in the near future.

Yep, big gap. It must be because of the light weight of the 3.8 in the front. if you all remember, mine sat at least that high.

lower the car, those rims make it look more like a 4x4 than the stock wheels.

Well I would consider it first of all if I had the money for it and if I did lower it I would not even be able to get in the driveway. Not that there is anything wrong with that but it is also my first car and it has high mileage on it so I do not want to put too much money into it when I will end up selling it in a few years.I'll get a new car and hopefully get a v-8 with a whole lot less mileage on it. Then I will devote all my attention to making it look nice. This is my first car and I don't need to be throwing money into it when I will end up getting a better car shortly down the road. The mods that I am planning to put on this car will have no down side to them. Putting lowering springs will make me scrape everywhere I go. I live in a very hilly area and I would not look forward to scraping.

springs likely cost less than the wheels you bought.

i digg it, and the paint still looks like its in great shape too i hear you on the scraping ****, but the springs would really set the car off. oh yeah and the spacers were a great idea too. they didnt look that tucked in on zips car, did he have spacers on his??

where you live perhaps, but in reality with the rest of us... you're wrong.

what I said was, is and will remain to be true.

springs often cost less than rims

He was referring to the fact that I clearly said in my post that I got them from Mr. Zip and that you were not paying attention to the post and that it completly blew over your head. Case being that you don't read threads. You see statements that you want to see and coment on them when you have no idea what is going on except for what you felt like reading.
