New Rims
 
Got them on about 2 days ago...I LOVE IT.
What do you guys think about a spoiler? Should I get one? It looks good without it too. I can get a spoiler or window tint for xmas from my parents. or anything else that is about $200

I agree.That would look great.

Foster98GT 11-12-2005 12:46 PM

Looking Good! Any Yup the next move should be Springs followed by a spoiler.

Boon44 11-12-2005 12:58 PM

Well since you kinda have a budget ($200) limit, I would go with springs for now. H&R Sport Springs would be awesome. BTW- Wheels look really nice.

PS- change your sig out now that u have the new wheels.

4.6 Love 11-12-2005 01:05 PM

looks good man. yeah get a s281 spoiler and drop it some and you'll be good to go.. :)

Grimmz 11-12-2005 01:15 PM

yeah man forget the spoiler for now...get some H&R springs...thats what i'm gettin for x-mas...

MattJ 11-12-2005 01:48 PM

looks good. you also need to remove that dealer sticker.

Skip the spoiler for right now. Get some H&R Sport springs asap and treat yourself to a 14" antenna cuz that big old mast antenna has got to go. :D

Lances03SVT 11-13-2005 11:05 AM

Have too agree with Boon on this.Lower that thing and it will look alot better.

dannyb785 11-13-2005 11:13 AM

WOW. i told you this would wake the car up. they will DEFINITELY turn heads and once you get the spoiler/springs, you will be big pimpin.

theponyfactor 11-13-2005 12:00 PM

Here's the problem I'm having with this now. I don't have anything else to drive in winter. (Wisconsin) So im going to have to put back my old rims/tires on and i dont really know what else I want to do to this before winter. I guess springs wont make a difference in winter, im just having problems deciding what to do. Maybe i'll talk to my parents and find a way to store this baby and buy a $500 pos for the winter.

MattJ 11-13-2005 12:18 PM

Sell your old rims and buy a POS for the winter. Youll be glad you did. You should also get rid of those stupid replica caps and buy some different ones.

what are those?

MattJ 11-13-2005 12:37 PM

Your center caps that are black with the cobra. Replace those with something different.

Don't listen to him, why tf would anyone care about center caps?...

Yo how much tred do you have on your old tires? it may not be smart too put them back on if they are balding...instead just use the new one, the 10.5 in the rear should give you enough grip to get through most light snow...

As for next, i still say go wit H&R's, then you can worry about a spoiler, the only thing is if you get a new spoiler with your old paint coat on, it's guna look really different. Ebay is great for small things, but just remember you get waht you pay for...

theponyfactor 11-13-2005 01:20 PM

I was told that the salt will eat away at the chrome rims too, so id have to take them off. My old tires only have about 5-6000 miles on them

Dont listen to grimmz. why would anyone care about your bald tires.
Dont listen to grimmz. dont worry about what he says about springs if he doesnt have any to compare to.
Dont listen to grimmz. You can do whatever you like with your spoiler.
Dont listen to grimmz. He doesnt know anything about getting what you pay for.

:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

If you use those rims in the winter here, they will be pitting before spring rolls around. Remember, im like 30 minutes away from you.. I know our weather.

stangspeed 11-13-2005 05:33 PM

Bet..Im still waiting on pic's of the girl.... :D

Stang28 11-13-2005 05:40 PM

Those are sweet rims. Get some springs for that bad boy!

SpinMedia 11-13-2005 06:57 PM

pfft straight after driving off the dealer the first thing i did was go buy tints for my car. Down here tints is a must, its like gas, if you dont have them dont bother. The sun will really fuk you up if you dont have tints down here, and it will crack your dash and leather seats too.

Is there a good way to take it off? Or just pick at it?

thats what i did for mine. chances are, it hasnt been on for too long so it wouldnt hurt paint. just take of a little at a time and see if paint is affected.
