If i had some proper coil overs i'd probably run a set up like that all season


Sl8r's V8 Conversion - GFXjamie - 11-28-2009

haha... funny you post this, i was contemplating running 10 holes on my focus... my car just doesnt sit so low...

maybe ill swap em on and see how they look


Sl8r's V8 Conversion - Oscar The Grouch - 11-28-2009

You know what, you should do a RWD conversion... I'm thinking about it for the Turbo Focus.


Sl8r's V8 Conversion - GFXjamie - 11-28-2009

do a v8 swap and sell me FS stage 2 for half price :D


Sl8r's V8 Conversion - GFXjamie - 11-28-2009

what size are those tires anyways? 225 series??


Sl8r's V8 Conversion - fatphocus - 11-28-2009

I've yet to post my own version but figure nows the time haha. My buddy brought over his 86 GT Saleen rep wheels and we tried them on my car for fun, and they fit with no rubbing but granted I wouldnt be able to drive with them, ahha. heers some pics...235/45 17x8s up front and 275/40 17x9s out back:

Oh I'm keeping the boost... It's not going to be a V8 RWD. Its going to be a Duratec RWD swap

Sl8r's V8 Conversion - 2DXTRM - 11-29-2009

LOL! Looks pretty kool!

I wonder how a set of the 16inch Mustang "Pony" wheels would look.




Sl8r's V8 Conversion - GFXjamie - 11-29-2009

test fit happened today for my 10 holes.... heres how it went with 205 65 15 tires on 10 holes:

im not using the green wheels i have on my fox body tho, picking up a set for like 80 bones


Sl8r's V8 Conversion - xXCMGXx - 11-29-2009

hey look its a christmas car!! haha


Sl8r's V8 Conversion - GFXjamie - 11-29-2009

haha... ya no kidding...

my mustang has the green wheels, it also has a wreath hanging from the rear spoiler!


Sl8r's V8 Conversion - Drivesthebeast - 11-30-2009

Ahhh, I remember 10 holes...my friend had them on his Fairmont Futura, with tires that were too wide...but the rims looked great on that car.

I had GT Cobra Turbines on my Zephyr, and they totally suited the car...they actually made people think I had done the 302 conversion already, and didn't want to line up against my car (though it only had the 200 c.i.d straight six...lol)...

Looks neat
