Mickey Thompson SC-5 new wheels ...

Ask the M/T Tech how I can get that lower grill lol

I don't mind doing that at all.
I probably will be talking with that guy again.
Especially if I do go with the M/T set-up.

I like the ones you have on there now

Thank-You and I also like it.

Just looking to do something a little different.

Hey Guys I can't Post this here in the Sale Section yet.
Because right now I don't know if I am going with the M/T deal or not.

But if you guys know anyone looking for a real deal.
Tell them to check out this Post I just did.
I can do this over on IMBOC but I don't think you can do it here.
I think it has to be for sell on S197 when you do the Post
I'm going to do the same exact Post here once I make the decision.

If you have some Buddies you might want to tell them about this.

Hello gang,

For you M/T wheel lookers and thinkers.


I can't promise you that you can do this but it should work.

If you have a Very Large Monitor here is a Link to a Full-Size image of the New M/T SC-5 wheel.

I just tried just (Clicking) on the Purple 2629x2629 below and it takes you straight to the Huge Picture.


You should see this on the Upper Right this, Full size: 2629x2629

If you Click on that you can see a Very-Very-Clear image of what the M/T SC-5 wheel really looks like.

HOLY COW! That is a huge pic. I guess they are showing it 1:1 scale. LOL

I think the picture for the 9.5 and 10.5 are the same. The wheel lip should be deeper on the 10.5. I would like to see how deep it is. If it isn't, the offset might be funky. Although... 9.5/10.5 is what I am running and the wheel lips are not THAT different.

I agree that I could not tell the difference either between the 9.5 & 10.5 Pics.

I'll be sure to Post some Pics. of the real thing once I get to go see this in person.

I don't think the Lip will be all that much different between them.
But obviously the inner side of the 10.5" will have to be Deeper.

Man this is already Wednesday and tomorrow around noon time I will hopefully be getting my new Slotted rotors and hawk brake pads installed.

I want them on my Bullitt (Before) I go to Discount Tire to see the M/T wheel and tire.

Especially if I like it and have them mount the tire on the wheel and install it on the Bullitt.

I want to see the exact thing on my Mustang so I can make a good decision.

I sure do like what I see in that Huge-Picture of the M/T wheels.

I have the hawk pads with slotted rotors... you can barely see the rotors in the pic below. Problem is.... it's rare that I get them to the point where I need them. LOL

Nice machine you have Pal.

I can see the slotted rotors a little.

In normal driving I doubt they would be used.

But on the drag strip at Plus 125 to 138 MPH they might come in handy for me.

As I said I like your Bullitt !!!

So you are a New York guy ???


TN. on this end,

Thanks. It's been down the quarter a few times, but it needs a driver mod. The rotors roar pretty good when you get on them, but man they work good. I have autocrossed once but still not working them hard enough.

You are tuff to follow.... I am just inches away from getting the CS front and rear bumpers, so I eyeball you car a lot. I also have an M90 under there, so I considered the long drive to Brenspeed to do an upgrade to it. I guess the best way to say it.... you're a bad influence. LOL Gotta tell you though... the cost to do the bumpers has me thinking mutiny to a 500.

TN is a good place to be. Makes me think of that Brad Paisley song. LOL Stayed down there when I went down to the Dragon a few years back. Liked it "down" there.

We were at The Tail of the Dragon for what we call, (The Bullitt Nationals).
I think that was last year I think.
Time does fly ........

I really like the GT C/S front and rear fascias.
They are much more aggressive looking to me on the Bullitt than the Stock fascias.

You can always give Brent White a call at Brenspeed.
Set-up a time to go and even stay FREE at their Guest House while your Bullitt is being worked on.

I might be making that drive North in the near future myself.
I'm wanting to get them to install a Canton Aluminum extra capacity oil pan.

I understand that when you go for the GT/CS fascias at the Stealership that you should ask for the "accessory" price, which is quite a bit lower than the "replacement" price, which is higher because of anticipation that the insurance companies will shell out easier than the aftermarket crowd. Some parts people are surprised to learn there are two prices for the same items.

Frank,

I have heard that something like you describe is true on parts cost.

In my case I ran my Bullitt into a Steel Roll Cage in the garage so I then changed it over to the GT/CS fascias.
Lucky for me I have a Buddy I use to work with and he is the Mgr. of a Body-Shop.
So he got all my parts for me as a Dealer.

A very Sad day for me when I did this.

Finally got to look at my New M/T Wheel & Tire.
Placed the order yesterday afternoon.

I took 44-Pics. so if you want to see more let me know.

Below will show what the wheel and tire looks like though.

Terry

 

[Mike K]

Looks good. Let us know how those tires are as far as traction and for daily driving.

 

[46Tbird]

That is a great looking wheel, and a great looking tire too. Keep us posted as far as traction, tire wear, etc. once you get the full set on there and start driving. I like those a lot more than the 302S wheels, and I liked them quite a bit.

 

[TRC51]

That wheel fits the car!!

 

[wckdgt]

ive been waiting for you to get these lol, do you have a side shot of the wheels so i can see how the lip is w the 275's?

 

[retfr8flyr]

Looking good Terry. I'm not usually a fan of black wheels but those work well with your car.

Thanks guys for the compliments on the new M/T set-up.

They have ordered the rest of them and they might be in this week.

As you saw in the few Pics. above the one I did try on the Bullitt really looks pretty darn Awesome.

Personally I like and prefer the M/T to the Boss wheels on it now.

I do have more Pics. but S-197 only lets you Post so many at a time.

Here is the actual Pics. I took if you want to see all the Pics.
