Forgive me for my ignorance, but what kind of wheels are those?

Good luck on the build! Subscribed

 

[Brian W.]

thanks guys.


the wheels are made by a Russian company called Desmond. This particular wheel is known as the "regamaster". Its a super light weight forged wheel. Sadly they are no longer in business, so they are hard to come by.
The sizes on these particular ones are 18x9.5 +18. Ill be purchasing 4 more that i just sold, back from a friend of mine.

.....the wheels.

I like to slide around in the road so this excites me.

Awesome!! I don't care what some people think, drifting is bad-ass. It is not as easy as some people think! I tried it with my 03 Cobra and I think I need lessons before I destroy my cars, LMAO!! Good luck on the project! Maybe I can try it again in my 09 GT someday!

I'd be REALLY interested to see how easy it is to bolt up the 2010 front end on this car. I have considered doing this swap myself and change up the look of my car from time to time. Today 2006 GT500, next month 2010 GT...

[StangMahn]

I'd go for a 2010 GT500 front end...much better than the GT and it's mutton chops

 

[danbev07]
