Weld Pro Stars
15x3.5 fronts
15x10 rears
Rears have 325/50/15 BFG Drag Radials on 'em. I knew they were big, but DAYUM. Got to grind the calipers tomorrow and get my lugnuts and spacers from C&S Performance still. I have some used lugnuts and spacers that i will sell cheap to somebody that may need them for their fourth gen cars if they want to run skinnies.
Chris
Will have pics sometime soon

Let me know how those work out, I'm really curious. In response to my own post, I got a chance to check out Chris's new tires last night and they are BADDDD ASSS!!! That is one of the toughest looking rear tire combos I've seen on an F Body. Be careful launching on those or you MAY end up like THIS!!:

Hahaha, i loe the way it looks. I keep thinking to drop the car over the tires a bit, but everyone seems to be against it. Oh well. Still want to tuck it in there a bit more. Pics are in my other post, but they don't do it justice.

Nothing much, just headers/exhaust/SMAAAAALLLLL cam/air lid. Sold the nitrous kit off of it. Just gonna keep driving it and having fun. Not the fastest thing in the world, but still something.

That pic is awesome!! I think thats the same car that was in Hot Rod mag about 3 years ago that shows how hard a drag radial can hook. The car pulled so hard and so high that it bounced off the rear bumper!!:drool: :eek: :cool2:

The air underneath the rear tires is my favorite part of that pic.

hey chris, now your car is the right color! :rolleyes:
j/k :)
You got to admit, the car looks BAD being Black with those Black BFG's sticking out just right, on the Weld wheels.
looks like it wants to Drag Race!:banana
and now you have a M6,
wow, how are ya going to keep from pucking the 10 bolt?
have you changed out the Pinion crush sleeve?
Do you have the Stock Zexel Torson, with 3:42's in there?
what r your plans? for the 10 bolt?
WOW, that is a COOL wheelie! the mustang.

My plans, for the 10 bolt, are to remove it and throw it into the back of the garage :) Tha's why I haven't already been to GLD. Just don't want to waste it on a 10 bolt breaking. WOuld take mod money away for the towing bill :)

i know
that is why i am affraid to run it anymore at the strip.
i turned about 7 passes with Heated up stock tires,
at 13.15, 107mph, and my pinion seal was leaking after that!!!!!!!
i took the crush sleeve out, and put in the Summit racing Bearing Spacer w/shims, that Tom recommended.
so far, so good, for road racing.
SOME DAY i'll get my mosler 12 bolt in there!
