I don't have a carpenter's square, unfortunately. This is a shot of the wheels from the back.

What measurements are you looking for exactly?

What I'm looking for are shots taken straight down the sides of the car so I can see how the tires sit with respect to the sheetmetal. A 3/4 view from the side is too far out.

Something like this or even tighter in line with the sides of the car, maybe with the camera down a little lower.

I forget when I took that picture, but it looks like it's the 235/50's on 18 x 8.5 (ET50?) wheels on the car.


Take your time.

For the love of all that is holy, what is that behind those wheels?!

Envy. That's what it is.

Thanks. That first one is what I was looking for for the front tire and the third one is close enough to indicate that the tire sidewall may be just a tiny bit out past the sheetmetal. If it doesn't rain I'll see if I can match those angles for my summer tire setup.

Hi Vince,

Just dropped by to see and read about your Machine/Mustang.

Out of all the many excellent pictures I picked my [Favorite].

Installed this today. The goal was better throttle response along with a warranty.

So far, I'm VERY impressed.

For the money and peace of mind, I love my Pro-Cal tune as well!

I enjoy detailing cars almost as much as racing and modifying them. I also do it as a side business. Those wavy lines on the garage door are the sun reflecting off the paint's mirror finish.

Thanks, guys! If anyone's curious, that was after a simple 2-bucket wash using Chemical Guys Mr. Pink car wash, then a waxing with Chemical Guys Black Light, and a light buffing with Hybrid V7. I used their Natural Shine dressing on the tires.

Your car get fixed?

From the accident? Yeah, it didn't even take them a week. The body shop found a perfect, complete used door off of a '12 GT500. Apparently the door had the window motor/regulator, glass, and speaker already installed. So all they had to do was repaint the door and re-clear the passenger side of the car to get it to match.

Always interested in seeing other "track day" builds. Nice work.

I just wanted to say thank you to you for this thread... Brings back memories of my own and got my blood flowing again wanting to mod the daylights out of our new Stang...
