    TSW Nurburgring's and Steeda Sports.

    Just told another guy on this forum I put those same Nurburgring wheels on my '91 Fox and love them. Did you happen to notice how freakin light those are?

    Steeda Spyders Cheapest place

    I was impressed at how light my 20" Steeda wheels were when I pulled them out of the box. Much lighter than some other brand 18" wheels I looked at and wider to boot. I bought mine from my local parts guy and they were right at $20 less per wheel than the Steeda website. Don't think they work a...

    Custom Wheel Project: Can it work?

    The 20x11 Steeda wheels I had on my car used up every available millimeter of the factory Ford sheet metal, but you cannot push the wheel out far enough to meet up with the 3D Carbon body kit unless you want some serious rubbing and bottoming issues. Down side of having the kit. But when I...

    M/T drag radials and wheels for S197 for sale

    Here is a great deal for drag racing your 2005-2011 S197 car. I have 3 passes on these and zero street miles. They are about as new as you can get. I DO NOT have a drag suspension and these still pulled a 1.61 60 foot with my mild combination and low launch rpm. So I know they work!! Mickey...

    Want Some New Wheels

    Go to Tire Rack (or Google search) and look at the American Racing "Earndardt Jr. Killer" wheels. I know they come in 17" sizes and I believe 18s. I have a set of rears just for drag radials and think they are good looking. Come in black, silver, and I think chrome (not sure). I am putting a...

    Cams for a daily driven automatic

    I have Comp Stage 2 NSR cams in my '08 automatic GT. I also have 4.10 gears, long tubes, and a 3000 rpm converter that help with low end torque. I did my converter AFTER installing the cams so I got to drive it for 10 days with the stock converter. Yes, the higher stall works a little bit...

    FRPP 4.10's not good?

    My FRPP 4.10s in my 08 GT are QUIETER than the stock gears that came from Ford, so I would say there is no issue. The secret to gears is all part of the install. Brandon

    Steeda Bump Steer Kit?

    I am using Steeda Sypder 9.5" fronts. I believe they are a +45mm offset, but check the website to be sure. No rub with the 285. Out back I have the 20x11" with a 305/30 and wish I had bought the 315/30. But it looks good and I can do the tire upgrade next go around. Brandon

    Steeda Bump Steer Kit?

    285/35-20 Toyo T1R. Don't grab or pull at all. A friends car gets caught up in the freeway ruts much more and he has 255 fronts, but does not have the two Steeda mods I do. By the way, the shop I had install the two parts charged a pretty minimal fee so they must not be terribly hard items...

    Ported Saleen lid...

    I have zero experience with that mod, but a friend of mine found some big power gains on his Kenne Bell '06 GT by swapping to the KB big 130mm throttle body. Blowers that "draw thru" a tb see more benefit of a bigger tb than those that "blow thru" the tb. Having said that, even if the port...

    Biggest tire on rear 17's?

    Drag radials wouldn't be my first choice for a true daily driver, but as far as I know that is the only tire available in a size that will give the look you are after. 17" tire sizes have pretty much fallen off the map now that manufacturers have a bigger market in 18-22" sizes. Good luck...

    Hellion quandary.

    I'm just jealous your buying a turbo so I'm suscribing to take notes in case I ever get that lucky! Good luck, Brandon
